MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) – Music artists Halsey and Logic are the first headliners announced for Summerfest 2018.
Halsey and Logic along with another special guest, yet to be announced, will perform June 29 at the American Family Insurance Amphitheater. This will be the first time both artists have performed at Summerfest.

"That guiding principle for us of truly being something for everyone, that's what's important for us. We feel like the public in Milwaukee and beyond really responds to that. So today, Halsey and Logic, tomorrow, we'll see!"
