Downtown Thiensville: Announces “Rumbles on Main,” a new street festival 

For the first time ever, Eats & Beats is rolling onto Thiensville’s Main Street.

Thiensville, WI — April 28, 2026 –  Downtown Thiensville is excited to announce the debut of Eats & Beats: Rumbles on Main, a brand-new street festival taking place on Saturday, July 11 from 10 am – 9 pm, in the heart of the Village of Thiensville on Main Street. As part of the organization’s 40th Anniversary celebration, we are bringing Eats & Beats to the streets with live music, great food, and family fun for the very first time on Main Street. 

Presented by Suburban Motors Harley-Davidson, for one special summer Saturday, Main Street will be transformed into a lively, walkable festival space—featuring live music, food trucks, local vendors, and kids area for a welcoming, family-friendly atmosphere. 

An impressive live music lineup will keep the energy high and the good vibes going all day. 

11:00 AM – 2:00 PM | Brett & The Dandys – A feel-good group delivering classic hits and easygoing summer energy.

2:30 PM – 5:30 PM | Six Pack Sammy – A high-energy cover band known for engaging the crowd and keeping the party going.

6:00 PM – 9:00 PM | Cold Sweat & the Brew City Horns – A dynamic funk and soul band with a powerful horn section, closing out the night with an energetic performance.

“We’re excited to introduce something new and memorable as part of our 40th anniversary year,” said Katherine Egelhoff, Board President, Downtown Thiensville. “Rumbles on Main brings everything people love about Eats & Beats—music, food, and community—into the streets. It’s designed to be a fun, family-friendly event where locals and visitors can come together and experience our village in a whole new way.”

The event invites attendees to arrive however they choose—whether by foot, bike, car or motorcycle—and enjoy a Saturday in the Village filled with entertainment and connection. Guests can stroll Main Street, explore food offerings, take in live music, and experience interactive moments with Suburban Motors Harley-Davidson and other vendors in the street.

“At Suburban Harley-Davidson, we’re proud to support an event that brings people together in such a fun and inclusive way,” said Todd Berlin, General Manager of Suburban Harley-Davidson. “Rumbles on Main reflects the spirit of community and shared experiences. Well, for us, we also get to celebrate and remember the memory of Wayne Houpt, who would have wanted everyone here to enjoy the festivities, while having the time to show off the wonderful village we have called home for the last forty-one years out of fifty-one years of business!” We’re thrilled to be part of a July 11th that welcomes everyone—whether you ride or just want to enjoy a great summer event!”

Rumbles on Main is free to attend and open to the public. Downtown Thiensville is currently seeking sponsors and volunteers to help bring the event to life. Those interested in getting involved can learn more at:
