12 Best Things To Do in Madison, WI

Updated May. 26, 2022

A visit to Madison is all about the outdoors. Whether you're paddling the city's five lakes, biking along its more than 200 miles of trails or exploring the more than 900 acres that comprise the University of Wisconsin-Madison campus, you'

• All Things To Do

University of Wisconsin – Madison Memorial Union University of Wisconsin – Madison Memorial Union

One of the star attractions of the University of Wisconsin-Madison campus, the Memorial Union is beloved by students and locals alike. Open since Oct. 5, 1928, and perched on the shores of Lake Mendota, the union is perhaps best known for its terrace, which faces the lake and is filled with colorful sunburst chairs and tables perfect for enjoying the view, a brat and a pitcher of beer. When the terrace closes for the season (typically in late September), retreat inside to Der Rathskeller. With its German beer hall vibe and cozy fireplaces, Der Rathskeller is a popular spot to watch Badger games. There's also a stage for open mic nights and plenty of seating. Other Union attractions include rotating art exhibits and galleries, an ice cream shop, multiple eateries and a store selling grab-and-go items, along with Badger apparel and gifts. 

Past visitors raved about the union, specifically the terrace, with a few calling it among the top spots for Madison travelers to visit. According to reviewers, the best time to visit is in summer, when the weather is just right for enjoying the building's lakefront perch. Just remember: This is a popular spot, so you may have to wait for one of the coveted terrace tables if you're here during the busy evening hours.

State Street State Street free

To experience the heart of downtown Madison, you must take a stroll along State Street. Anchored by the Wisconsin state Capitol on one end and the University of Wisconsin campus on the other, State Street shelters hundreds of shops, boutiques, galleries, restaurants, pubs and taverns, museums and performance venues, including the Overture Center for the Arts. Thanks to its close proximity to the campus, the street is home to a variety of wallet-friendly shops and eateries suitable for the student budget. If you're looking for a more formal sit-down meal (or a restaurant that may not attract many students), head to the Capitol Square. Here's where you'll find perennial favorites like The Old Fashioned and Cooper's Tavern serving up the state's famous cheese curds alongside an impressive list of local beers. Graze, Cento and Tavernakaya are three other popular restaurants around the square.   If you're visiting the area on a Saturday, you can't miss the Dane County Farmers' Market on the Square. Nearly 300 vendors set up shop outside the capitol building selling meats, cheeses, flowers, vegetables and specialty items all grown or produced in Wisconsin. Adding to the atmosphere are a variety of street musicians.    Past visitors had fun perusing the shops and restaurants along State Street, though a few warned of panhandlers and said they felt safer exploring the area during the day versus the night.   State Street spans from Park Street to the Capitol Square. Aside from city vehicles, the area is pedestrian-only. There are a variety of parking garages surrounding the area. State Street is free to visit day or night, though businesses operate their own hours. For a business directory, consult the Downtown Madison website .

Wisconsin State Capitol Wisconsin State Capitol free

History buffs and architecture aficionados alike will appreciate a stop at the Wisconsin state Capitol. Constructed between 1906 and 1917, the building is an iconic fixture in the Madison skyline. Among the architectural highlights are the council chambers, which were modeled after Venice 's Doge's Palace , as well as the governor's conference room, which is decorated with 26 historical and allegorical paintings by Hugo Ballin. Other chambers within the building feature French and Italian marble, skylights and murals. If you can only admire the capitol from the outside, pay attention to the dome, which rises more than 200 feet and features a bronze Daniel Chester French statue (French is best known for designing the Lincoln Memorial ). During the summer months, be sure to stop by the sixth-floor museum and observation deck.

Past visitors described the building as "beautiful" and recommended taking a guided tour for the best experience.

University of Wisconsin-Madison Arboretum University of Wisconsin-Madison Arboretum free

For a break from the bustle of the university campus and downtown core, head to the University of Wisconsin-Madison Arboretum. Sprawling across 1,200 acres, the arboretum shelters tallgrass prairies, savannas, wetlands, several forest types, flowering trees, shrubs and an impressive lilac collection. Explore the attraction's various habitats while traversing the more than 17 miles of trails that weave through the property. There are also three gardens, one of which houses one of the largest displays of lilacs in North America. When you're not admiring the arboretum's collection of plants, head to the visitor center to watch an orientation film detailing the arboretum's history and to access facilities like restrooms, a bookstore, an art gallery and a horticultural library. 

Past travelers were impressed with the arboretum and say you'll need several visits to see everything the site has to offer. Many visitors particularly enjoyed the opportunities for bird-watching and recommend wearing sturdy shoes and bringing along bug repellent. 

Olbrich Botanical Gardens Olbrich Botanical Gardens free

The Olbrich Botanical Gardens date back to 1921, when Michael B. Olbrich first purchased a plot of land along Lake Monona. Since then, the gardens have expanded to 16 acres and the tropical Bolz Conservatory. One highlight is the Thai Pavilion and Garden – a gift from the Thai government to the University of Wisconsin-Madison . The ornate pavilion, which features gold leaf etchings, a lacquer finish and intricate decor, was built in Thailand and disassembled to ship to Madison where it was reconstructed by Thai artisans. Visitors will also want to make time for the 2-acre Rose Garden, which shelters roses alongside perennials, ornamental grasses, shrubs, ornamental trees, annuals and spring bulbs.    If you happen to stop by this attraction when the outdoor gardens aren't blooming, consider warming up in the Bolz Conservatory. The balmy conservatory houses more than 650 plants, a waterfall and free-flying birds with temperatures inside the glass pyramid resting between 65 and 80 degrees year-round.   Past visitors raved about the variety of plants on display at the gardens. Others appreciated the many water fountains and benches interspersed throughout the property. The free admission was also a big hit among reviewers.   You'll find the Olbrich Botanical Gardens on Lake Monona's northern shore about 5 miles east of downtown Madison. On-site amenities include a horticultural library, as well as a gift shop. Due to COVID-19, the gardens are only open from noon to 6 p.m. Tuesday through Sunday. The conservatory is closed until further notice. Admission to the outdoor gardens is free, though donations are welcome. Admission to the conservatory costs $2 per adult and is free for kids 5 and younger. Parking is free. For more information, visit the official website .

Chazen Museum of Art Chazen Museum of Art free

Situated on the University of Wisconsin-Madison campus and spread across two buildings, the Chazen Museum of Art shelters the second-largest collection of art in Wisconsin, with approximately 23,000 artworks. The museum's collection spans a variety of mediums, time periods, geographic locations and cultures. Along with its permanent collection, the museum also hosts temporary exhibitions and community events. 

Past visitors praised the range of art on display here and said a stop at the museum is a great activity for cold winter days. Others were especially pleased with the free admission and the on-site cafe. 

Henry Vilas Zoo Henry Vilas Zoo free

A great option for those traveling with kids, the Henry Vilas Zoo is home to more than 650 animals, including camels, tigers, flamingos and penguins. What's more, it's one of 10 remaining free zoos in North America. The zoo's free admission was a stipulation that Col. William and Anna Vilas made when they gave the land to the Madison Park and Pleasure Drive Association in 1904 "for the uses and purposes of a public park and pleasure ground." The zoo borrows its name from the Vilas' son, Henry, who died when he was young as a result of complications from diabetes.    Travelers can enjoy the various zoo exhibits, including a rainforest aviary, a big cats enclosure, a herpetarium (where cold-blooded animals like reptiles reside) and the Arctic Passage, home to grizzly bears, polar bears and harbor seals. There's also a children's zoo with a herd of goats, a zoo train and a carousel (both the train and the zoo cost $2 per passenger to ride).   According to past visitors, the zoo is small but still offers a fun outing for kids of all ages. Plus, the free admission makes it a no-brainer for families. Even better, the zoo is surrounded by Vilas Park, which features two playgrounds and plenty of open space for playing and picnics, among other activities.     The zoo is open daily from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Zoo admission and parking are free. You'll find the zoo less than a mile south of Camp Randall Stadium just south of the university campus downtown. On-site amenities include an indoor restaurant, a seasonal ice cream and coffee kiosk, and a gift shop. To start planning your visit, check out the official website .

Taliesin Preservation Taliesin Preservation

A National Historic Landmark and the only UNESCO World Heritage Site open to the public in the state of Wisconsin, Taliesin Preservation is the home, studio, school and 800-acre agricultural estate of American architect Frank Lloyd Wright. Located in Spring Green, about 40 miles west of Madison on land that was homesteaded by Wright's Welsh grandparents, the estate makes for an interesting daytrip, especially for architecture buffs. Here you'll see buildings from nearly every decade of Wright's career, including his only restaurant design.

There are a variety of tours available. If you're more interested in the grounds and the Driftless Area in general, sign up for the hourlong Driftless Landscape Tour, which focuses on the landscapes surrounding the estate. Those more interested in the architect's home should opt for the two-hour House Tour, which showcases not only the interior and its furnishings, but also the courtyards and gardens surrounding the property. For a more comprehensive look at the entire estate, sign up for the four-hour-long Estate Tour, which includes visits to some of the pivotal structures housed on the property, including the home Wright built for his sister, as well as Romeo and Juliet Windmill Tower, the oldest design on the estate. For a more abridged experience, there's also the two-hour Highlights Tour that explores Wright's home and studio and includes a shuttle across the estate to view the grounds.

The Madison Children's Museum is home to a variety of spaces and activities to keep little ones entertained. Along with indoor exhibits like an art studio and a Frank Lloyd Wright-themed mock building zone, the museum offers outdoor exhibits that aim to teach kids about sustainability and composting. It also features plants, as well as animals like chickens.

Past visitors said the museum is a great place to bring small kids (no older than 12) thanks to all the interactive exhibits. However, they did warn that the food at the on-site cafe is average and overpriced. Save your money by packing your own snacks or lunch.

Breaking news, how much do tickets cost to see david gilmour on tour in 2024.

• View Author Archive

Thanks for contacting us. We've received your submission.

You won’t need to travel to “The Dark Side of the Moon” to see David Gilmour live in 2024.

It won’t hurt if you’re in New York or Los Angeles, though.

The long-time Pink Floyd member and Rock and Roll Hall of Famer has ten concerts lined up this fall in just three cities as part of his ‘Luck and Strange Tour’ in support of his upcoming album with the same name.

A whopping five (!) of those ten Gilmour gigs will be in New York City when he takes on a short residency at Madison Square Garden from Nov. 4-10.

At all shows, fans can expect the Rock and Roll Hall of Famer to deliver cuts from the new record as well as more obscure Pink Floyd tracks that might not normally make the set list.

“Yeah, that might be better represented,” he told Uncut Magazine, according to Jambands.com . “I mean, at least one from the 60s. The one we’ve done in the past is ‘Astronomy’ [“Astronomy Domine,” track one from 1967 debut ‘The Piper at the Gates of Dawn’]. That’s always entertaining and fun and gets people off to a happy start. There’s songs from the ‘[A] Momentary Lapse of Reason’ and ‘The Division Bell’ albums. I mean, I think ‘High Hopes’ is as good as anything we ever did at any time.”

If this sounds like your dream classic rock deep dive, tickets are available for all shows as soon as today.

Some are quite affordable, too.

At the time of publication, ticket prices start at $66 before fees on Vivid Seats.

His New York shows have seats starting anywhere from $102 to $196 before fees depending on the gig.

Curious how much tickets cost for the Gilmour gig of your choosing?

We’re here to help.

Our team has everything you need to know and more about David Gilmour’s 2024 ‘Luck and Strange Tour’ below.

All prices listed above are subject to flucutation.

A complete calendar including all tour dates, venues and links to buy tickets can be found below.

(Note: The New York Post confirmed all above prices at the publication time. All prices are in US dollars, subject to fluctuation and include additional fees at checkout .)

Vivid Seats is a verified secondary market ticketing platform, and prices may be higher or lower than face value, depending on demand.

Justin Timberlake was excited to see a familiar face in the crowd during night two of the Madison Square Garden leg of his Forget Tomorrow Tour . 

John Legend and his wife, Chrissy Teigen , attended the pop star's New York City show, cheering the "Cry Me a River" singer on from the audience and dancing along to his hits.

Teigen, 38, rocked a "JUSTIN" trucker hat, dancing with Legend, 45, in one video she posted to her Instagram Story. 

At one point during the concert, Timberlake came out into the audience, declaring, "John Legend in the house, y'all," and gave the "All of Me" crooner a big hug as the audience cheered. 

An eyewitness tells ET that at one point during the show, Timberlake told the crowd that there were a lot of friends and family in the audience. 

Timberlake also helped one woman announce her pregnancy to her family and friends. Her husband was at home with their kid, and she held up a sign asking the "Mirrors" singer to share her baby news. The former NSYNC star jokingly took on a Maury- inspired voice, declaring, "Tell him I said congratulations, 'You are the father!'" 

Timberlake's wife, Jessica Biel , also attended the show for a second night in a row, appearing backstage in one of her husband's Instagram Reels . 

Some fans had the opportunity to see the pop singer take the stage through  Marriott Bonvoy Moments , the platform where members use their points earned from travel and everyday activities to redeem experiences such as Timberlake's concert. 

It's been a rough few weeks for Timberlake, but it didn't "ruin the tour" as he thought.

The singer was arrested on June 18 in Long Island, New York, on charges of driving while intoxicated. A Sag Harbor police officer observed him driving a 2025 gray BMW and failing to stop at a duly posted stop sign and stay in his lane. According to Page Six , the officer also reportedly said Timberlake told him the arrest would "ruin the tour." When the officer asked what tour he was referring tour, the singer reportedly replied, "the world tour."

"A traffic stop was initiated by a Police Officer from the Sag Harbor Village Police Department and upon investigation it was determined that Mr. Timberlake was operating his vehicle in an intoxicated condition," a statement from the police department read. "Upon contact with [Timberlake] it was ascertained that [he] was operating said vehicle in intoxicated conditions, in that his eyes were bloodshot and glassy, a strong odor of an alcoholic beverage was emanating from his breath, he was unable to divide attention, he had slowed speech, he was unsteady afoot, and he performed poorly on all standardized field sobriety tests."

Timberlake claimed he had "one martini," which was later corroborated by the bartender who served him. 

"Justin is feeling remorseful, ashamed, and humiliated, but also accountable," a source told ET, adding that Timberlake "does not believe he needs help when it comes to alcohol," instead viewing the incident as a "major lapse of judgement."

It might ruin the tour , but it won’t ruin their marriage.

Jessia Biel was seen dancing in the crowd at her husband Justin Timberlake’s Forget Tomorrow World Tour concert in New York City a week after the pop star was arrested on DWI-related charges.

The “7th Heaven” alum, 42, was spotted getting down to Timberlake’s performance at Madison Square Garden in an Instagram video shared by “The Real Housewives of New York City” star Jessel Taank on Tuesday.

In the clip, Biel nonchalantly swayed her hips and sang along to Timberlake’s tune before taking a sip of her beverage. She also stood alone at a cocktail table in the VIP section of the venue.

The actress appeared to be keeping a low profile by wearing a black baseball cap, though she also wore an eye-catching twisted-knit tank paired with high-waisted black jeans.

“What Tour? The World Tour. @justintimberlake,” the Bravolebrity, who attended the show with her “RHONY” co-star Ubah Hassan, captioned the post while referencing Timberlake’s DWI bust. Taank also shared a photo of his viral mug shot where he appeared glassy-eyed and stoic.

As Page Six reported, the “SexyBack” singer was arrested last week for getting behind the wheel after a boozy night out at the Ritzy American Hotel in Sag Harbor, LI.

The former *NSYNC frontman was cited for running a stop sign and driving outside the proper lane before being charged with a DWI (driving while intoxicated).

A source told us at the time that Timberlake, 43, was pulled over by a young police officer who “didn’t recognize him or his name.”

A second source shared that Timberlake told the cop under his breath, “This is going to ruin the tour. When the confused cop asked, “What tour?” Timberlake replied, “The world tour.”

The Grammy-winning artist failed a field sobriety test and repeatedly  refused to take a breathalyzer test .

Timberlake told law enforcement officials that he only had “one martini” before driving off in his 2025 gray BMW — which was confirmed by the bartender who served him.

Later in the day, Timberlake was released from the police station  without bail. His next court date is scheduled for July 26.

Sources confirmed to Page Six that Biel — who shares sons Silas, 9, and Phineas, 4, with Timberlake — was not with him at the time of his arrest. The couple tied the knot in 2012.

Despite her presence at Timberlake’s show, Biel is  reportedly “extremely upset”  over his actions.

Timberlake resumed his world tour in Chicago and addressed the arrest to his fans.

“It’s been a tough week,” Timberlake told the audience at United Center.

He added, “I know I’m hard to love sometimes but you keep loving me right back.”
