I have always be curious about this fest. I am guessing there is more of a family crowd with the bands they book, correct?
Yes, way more families than the average fest. However there are still no shortage of idiot kids running around intoxicated.
They also put all the national acts on at the same time each night (there's like 10 stages or something), plus you have to buy a separate ticket to see the main stage headliners. On a positive note it's super cheap and really well organized. There are worse ways to spend time in Milwaukee, that's for sure.
I'm a 15 minute bike ride away from the grounds and walk into a few free tickets every year and I still have to be pretty much forced to go. Every high school kid in the area goes there to get hammered, but there's also a nice mix of burned out middle-aged dudes equally as hammered and as obnoxious. If you want to hear at one of the grounds stages you'll need to be extremely close otherwise everyone around you will be talking loudly. At least if you go to an ampitheater show you're somewhat quarantined from everyone else.

Gonna disagree with the bolded pretty strongly. On the first Saturday night last year it was so busy and the line to buy tickets was so long that they just started letting people in for free...only to close the gates like 15 minutes later cause it was overcrowded. This was a good half an hour before all the headliners were even going to start. We decided to leave at about 9:15 and it took like 20 minutes to walk less than 1/4 of a mile to the exit. People were getting lifted off the ground cause it was so packed together. It's kind of a rarity cause it was a weekend night and there were a couple massive acts playing the free stages that night (I think like Dispatch and Pretty Lights and Imagine Dragons), but unless you're willing to murder someone to see a particular act, I'd strongly advise against going on the weekend.
Wow. That sounds awful.
I've never had an experience like that at Summerfest before, but I also haven't been since 2011 (and even then it was during the week and the show I was there for was at the amphitheater).
