Announcing the official schedule for Summerfest 2026! Thank you again for your patience as we move along with this year's planning. Please feel free at this time to run your promotions at your discretion. Keep in mind that Summerfest does throw us occasional curveballs that are beyond our control. Stay tuned to the 2nd Floor page for any related information.

Coming next will be detailed information about the stage plot, what is and what is not provided, instructions, maps, parking & passes, shuttles, etc...and more. Please be patient with this part as well and save any questions until that time.

For now, please allow yourself to get very very excited about the 2026 2nd Floor Local Artist Stage Summerfest Lineup!!

Artists, Please IM Gene Gruber if you notice any errors/typos on the schedule. Thanks

Hey everyone! Thank you for your patience with our process as we prepare for Summerfest 2026. Here is a preliminary copy of this year’s 2nd Floor Stage line up. This is just my working copy and just posting to get feedback from the artists who are on the schedule. Please look it over to check for spelling accuracy and such. Then reach out to me with any corrections I need to make. Once I hear from everyone, a prettier version of the official schedule will be posted and you can start promoting. Please save any other planning related questions for later. There will be lots of information coming with the official schedule release.

Hey there 2nd Floor Stage Fans! I am excited to announce that I did receive preliminary word that 2nd Floor Stage will be back at Summerfest again this year. While I await the official behind the scenes business to materialize, I am letting you know that the performer submissions have been long underway and the roster is essentially full at this time, although not finalized. Folks submitted directly to me pretty early this year, but I also scouted and invited some performers back from previous years. I already started a standby list so if anyone else wants to submit, please feel free to do so. Things change and sometimes openings come up. Submit by messaging this page or message me directly at Gene Gruber. For any newcomers, The 2nd Floor Local Artist Stage is not a paid gig, but rather tip based. Just something to consider if you’re interested. It’s still a blast!

For those who I have spoken to and have a spot on the preliminary schedule, please continue to refrain from promoting anything until you get the official word. If you need to put your summer schedule together and just want to put TBA on your calendar that is fine. More details to come, but in the meantime time please reach out to me with any questions.

I am really looking forward to another great year at Summerfest!!!!
