About Evansville Wisconsin

Evansville is located between Madison and Janesville in south-central Wisconsin. Residents love the convenience to regional, as well as local, employment options and affordable, high quality of life. Main Street is idyllic—and authentic. A city big enough to support real industry, and still small enough to be on a first-name basis with its business owners.

On behalf of the Chamber of Commerce, I invite you to experience the charm and hospitality of our dynamic and historic Wisconsin community.

Stroll through our historic downtown district, where century-old buildings house unique shops, cozy cafés, and local artisans. Don’t miss our newly completed aquatic center at Larson Acres Park, featuring a relaxing lazy river and exhilarating water slides. 

As you explore our community, follow the Barn Quilt Tour to discover colorful geometric patterns adorning traditional barns, homes, and local businesses, each telling a story of our agricultural heritage. History enthusiasts will appreciate our collection of beautifully preserved historic homes, showcasing architectural styles from Victorian to Craftsman.

When evening falls, immerse yourself in our vibrant local music scene, with live performances at venues ranging from intimate coffee shops and brew pubs to our world-class Evansville Underground Music shows all summer long.

Come visit us—where small-town charm meets memorable experiences!
