After his Super Bowl performance, Justin Timberlake added some more tour dates to his ‘Man of the Woods’ tour and included Milwaukee on the list for Friday, September 21st at the Wisconsin Entertainment and Sports Center. This is the biggest, current act that’s going to be at the Wisconsin ESC, but the list of people are coming to Milwaukee is an impressive list. This is just the beginning for the new arena, and if it receives high marks from performers, we will only see more major acts make it a point to come to Milwaukee at some point during their tour.

This is Timberlake’s first time in Milwaukee in 15 years. Think about that for a second… I was 14 when JT came to Milwaukee. 14! That would have been the ‘Justified’ tour right before the Super Bowl incident in 2004. Timberlake might not have the momentum that he did in other years, but this is a huge win for the City of Milwaukee. I also think it sends a message to the rest of the entertainment world. Timberlake is a top ten performer, and if he’s coming to check out Milwaukee’s new digs, others will take notice.

The list right now playing at the Wisconsin ESC is impressive even if it’s just in the infant stages -> Jim Gaffigan, Kevin Hart, Foo Fighters, Elton John, Maroon 5 and Timberlake.
