Summerfest in Milwaukee books A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie, Trippie Redd for amphitheater show

Summerfest in Milwaukee is bringing some much-needed diversity to its American Family Insurance Amphitheater lineup, revealing a July 1 hip-hop show with A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie and Trippie Redd, with Milwaukee rapper Kia Rap Princess opening.

Tickets go on sale at 10 a.m. May 5 at the box office (200 N. Harbor Drive) and summerfest.com. Prices have yet to be announced, but tickets will include Summerfest general admission for July 1.

Following Wednesday's news, Summerfest has just one amphitheater show yet to be announced, for July 6, for its 55th anniversary celebration this year.

The headliners for the seven previously announced amphitheater shows have been white men or bands led by white men: Eric Church (June 22), Zac Brown Band (June 23), James Taylor (June 24), Dave Matthews Band (June 29), Odesza (June 30), Zach Bryan (July 7) and Imagine Dragons (July 8). Some women will serve as opening acts in the amphitheater, including Sheryl Crow and Elle King, but a female headliner for Summerfest's biggest stage has yet to be named this year.

Aside from the July 6 amphitheater show, closing headliner slots have yet to be announced for the Miller Lite Oasis July 6 and the Generac Power Stage July 8. The festival's headliner lineup, with more than 100 acts, was revealed last month; the full schedule is expected in May.
