Shifting Gears Bike Path Festival 2021

Grab your bike, your scooter, roller skates, or just put on your favorite walking shoes! There’s a new summer tradition in Madison, one where you can enjoy dance and celebrate the last days of summer together but with safety and physical distancing in mind. The Isthmus Dance collective brings you the Shifting Gears Bike Path Dance Festival with generous support from Dane Arts.

Shifting Gears creates informal and temporary performance spaces in the park and green spaces along the fantastic bike paths in Madison: Wirth Court Park, McPike Park, and the Olin Park Vantage. So get a little exercise, enjoy the beautiful outdoors along the bike paths, and witness a stunning array of local dance groups with us. There will be plenty of interactive family friendly fun to be had for all!
