Summer in Wauwatosa

Whether you're enjoying live music, hanging out with your pooch, or simply enjoying a picnic in the park, Wauwatosa is the perfect place to create summertime memories. Start by visiting the Milwaukee Brewers and enjoy a baseball game at American Family Field. Continue to enjoy the weather in many of the different beer gardens Wauwatosa has to offer including the Landing at Hoyt Park. While you are there, cool off at the pool or spend a day at the beach.

If you are looking for other outdoor activities, lace up your sneakers and explore easy, walkable trails perfect for the whole family. Wauwatosa's scenic paths wind through lush parks and neighborhoods, making them ideal for a morning stroll or an afternoon adventure with the kids.

For family fun throughout the season, there is something for everyone with events all summer long like the Tosa Village Classic, Firefly Art Fair, and Firefly Fridays at Firefly Grove Park with Mama Rosa Friday's. There is no better way to enjoy a warm Wauwatosa evening than with live music under the open sky.

Along with the parks, trails and outdoor art you can continue to enjoy summer with great places to golf and shop like at Tosa Farmers Market. Finish the day with dinner on any of the outdoor patios located across the city.
