The Bodega Series, sponsored by Lauer Realty Group, is returning to Madison’s Historic Breese Stevens Field for its ninth year.
Madison’s favorite nighttime, local artisan market will feature five Thursdays and two Fridays during the 2025 season: April 24th, May 29th, June 26th, August 7th, September 5th, September 26th, and October 23rd
The Bodega remains true to its roots, created with Wisconsin-based, small businesses in mind. The Bodega at Breese Stevens Field will again welcome over 60 local artisans and food vendors from Madison and surrounding areas in our beloved Wisconsin. Products vary from an array of crafts, handcrafted jewelry, curated boutiques, candles, soaps, unique artwork, sweet treats, savory eats, and more!
In addition to the incredible local businesses, Bodega attendees can expect children's activities, various entertainment, yard games, and plenty of field space to soak up the beautiful summer and fall evenings in Downtown Madison. Beer and wine will be available to sip while perusing the array of vendors. What began as a way to engage local vendors and crafters in a sustainable community event, has blossomed into a cornerstone of Summer and Fall in Madison; a place where all are welcome to enjoy the history, culture and atmosphere at Madison’s premier outdoor venue, The Historic Breese Stevens Field.

New in 2025, the Bodega will feature unique themes and corresponding activities for folks of all ages. Beginning with the first date in our 2025 Bodega series, April 24th will focus on blossoming Spring and Earth Day themes, showcasing how amazing our planet is and how we can help do our part in protecting and giving back to our beautiful planet. Who knows? You just may find some leftover eggs from the easter bunny lying around the field as well. In May, we turn our focus to the fast approaching end-of-the-school-year and a school’s out celebration, letting our kiddos know they have done a terrific job keeping their grades up and also acknowledging the work that our teachers have put in over the entire course of the year as well. Be sure to keep an eye on all the Breese Stevens Field socials for more!
