Evansville, WI


Evansville is a charming Wisconsin destination filled with fantastic Wisconsin Events.  Even though the city is presently one of the fastest growing communities in Rock County, Evansville has maintained its charm and small town friendly atmosphere. Many downtown businesses have launched major restoration projects, returning Evansville's Main Street to its former glory and attracting new businesses – and visitors to town. Evansville's past and future are also linked through agriculture. Early on, wheat and tobacco were the biggest crops in South Central Wisconsin, and dairy farming soon became popular as well. Only 23 miles south of Madison, Evansville offers the best of both worlds. Pride is taken in our good schools, parks and library. And minutes away are shopping malls, theaters, music venues and museums.
