Schedule and ticket info is available at www.sugarmaplefest.org but here are some last minute tips:
See you at the big tent!
Your Sugar Maple Planning Crew
If you’re a fan of Sugar Maple, your ears are probably twitching with anticipation for the sweet sounds of bluegrass, Western swing, and other traditional tunes, but don’t forget your taste buds should be excited, too.
A few of the thrills awaiting your appetite will be in El Grito Taqueria’s vintage food truck. It’s loaded with sassy SoCal tacos! Do yourself a favor. Take advantage of the truck’s presence at Sugar Maple. It may be the easiest way for you to experience El Grito’s slightly elusive delights. The truck’s location changes throughout the week, so visit www.elgritotaqueria.com to check the schedule.
Once you’ve found the food truck, you’re in for a pleasant surprise. What the surprise will be is tough to say. El Grito’s menu changes frequently (go to www.elgritotaqueria.com to view the menu), but you’ll probably find tantalizing tacos, such as the Roasted Chicken with Tangerine Adobo, or the Summer Succotash—sweet corn and seasonal vegetables served with epazote and cilantro. That’s right. El Grito never forgets its vegetarian friends—or it’s thirsty ones. The horchata and the agua fresca will wet your whistle south-of-the-border style.
Remember, El Grito Taqueria is just one reason to attend the festival on an empty stomach. Try to leave a little room so that you can also sample treats from our other outstanding vendors below.
Established in 2012, Underground Butcher is a full service butcher located on Williamson Street in downtown Madison. Visit the Underground Food Truck at Sugar Maple for mouth-watering gourmet sandwiches.
Tyranena has been the Sugar Maple Festivals beer sponsor since our inception – and it is safe to say that we would not be here for our 13th year without them. Please support a great Wisconsin brewery with the same enthusiasm you have for Sugar Maple!
