However, it’s by no means their first surreal brainchild.īefore the days of Shrekfest, the trio made similarly ornate oddball projects through 3GI – albeit for the internet rather than in-person events. Shrekfest is the beloved and bizarre donkey-dragon hybrid baby of 3GI Industries, a band of internet creatives headed by Duffrin along with southeastern Wisconsin natives Kevin Gonring and Eric Nitschke. “We keep out-growing our shell, like a hermit crab,” said festival co-creator Grant Duffrin. The only thing more remarkable than the existence of a festival dedicated to “Shrek”? That a festival dedicated to “Shrek” has existed for years – and only grown, starting in a small Madison park in 2014 and expanding year after year in the capital city until now landing for the first time in Milwaukee.

(plus an afterparty at Indeed Brewing in Walker’s Point) the free all-ages event features all your typical festival elements – live music, games, honorary ceremonies – themed in far-less-typical fashion to the movie "Shrek." That includes a costume contest featuring the franchise’s fractured fairy tale characters, a roar-off inspired by the green grump’s swamp-clearing bellows and an onion-eating competition, all eventually topped off with a screening of the successful (and, lest you forget, Oscar-winning) film. 3, a band of local internet creators/friends/ogre uber-fans will host Shrekfest, a celebration dedicated to a hero as green as the Humboldt Park grass it will call home. And now that includes a festival dedicated to a green, swamp-dwelling animated ogre with emotional layers like an onion and a penchant for farting. Here, you can find a festival dedicated to a culture, a neighborhood, a food, a drink, a season or merely the fact that the sun came up that morning – just about anything. Perhaps even more than beer, Milwaukee is the city of festivals.
