We have to wrap up The Tent in the fall but Big Top Chautauqua is now entertaining year-round with the opening of our new venue— The Backstage.
The Big Top’s headquarters, box office, and gift shop relocated to Bayfield, Wisconsin (in the remodeled building formerly known as the Northern Edge/Fore’n Aft) and The Backstage event center is right through the same doors, just outside Bayfield city limits at the intersection of Highways 13 and J.
Locals have always been good to us so we really want to give people living in the area year-round something to do in the offseason. And we'd love to see more winter visitors in the area. There are great places to have a drink or a meal on a Saturday night, but there aren't many places where you can see a live performance. We hope to change that. Here, we can try some things with local talent and traveling performers that we may not be able to get on stage at the Big Tent. We hope you'll join us at The Backstage where we intend to play, experiment, and have some impromptu fun nights.
OPEN MIC NIGHTS! Wednesdays 6-9
Get up on stage or just come for a unique night out. No cover, no tickets, and no reservations...

The Backstage will have drinks and lite fare available for purchase before and during most shows.
