Milwaukee Metal Fest was founded in 1987 by Jack Koshick (also the founder of March Metal Meltdown) and was an annual event up until 2004, then returned for a one-off in 2007.

Milwaukee Metal Fest returned to prominence in 2023 under the watchful eye of HATEBREED frontman Jamey Jasta — who purchased the rights to the event from Koshick — and Sound Talent Group's Tim Borror, as well as the team at The Rave/Eagles Club, where so many of the original festivals took place.

We’re excited to announce another killer batch of bands on the 2025 line up including 2 headliners for Sunday May 18th...
