Live from the Wonderground: Madison Mystery Tour
Friday, August 2 @ 5:00 pm – 8:00 pm
Every first Friday this summer, enjoy free concerts at MCM featuring an eclectic mix of Madison bands. Adults get to dance and chat, kids climb and play, and caregivers enjoy low-stress social time in an outdoor play space like no other!
Tonight’s featured group is Madison Mystery Tour. Driven by their devotion to the Beatles, Madison Mystery Tour is dedicated to performing every song in the Fab Four’s core catalogue. Formerly “Get Back Wisconsin,” the group was established in 2012 and has performed to sold-out audiences around the state.
Don’t miss our Drop in the Bucket performer, Geoff Brady, performing smooth vibraphone melodies between sets from Madison Mystery Tour. We’ll also share a bonus toast with our outgoing CEO, Deb Gilpin, to celebrate her wonderful work at MCM and her upcoming adventures in retirement.
Live from the Wonderground admission is free! You may choose to provide a donation at the door, but no entry fee is required. Proceeds benefit the work of Madison Children’s Museum and allow us to bring accessible programming to our community. All tickets are at the door, no advance registration. Please enter at the Wonderground gate on E. Dayton Street, by the Log Cabin.
Live from the Wonderground brings music, dancing, food, and drinks for all ages to Madison’s most creative play space and part-time concert venue, the Wonderground.
This free first-Friday concert series features local bands, drinks, light snacks, and fresh air fun. Events take place from 5 to 8 pm, with bands performing two sets from 5:30 to 7:30 pm. In between sets, “A Drop in the Bucket” features a unique mini-set performed in the Wonderground’s Giant Bucket.
