The new and improved Brat Fest site went live in 2010 http://www.bratfest.com. Through the beCause Program, Ascedia’s matching grant program for cause related organizations, we were able to design, build, and implement an Entertainment Database all within the WordPress CMS framework. In 2012 Ascedia launched the Volunteer Management System website for Brat Fest at http://volunteer.bratfest.com. The rebuild of this system made the process for volunteers, group leaders, and Brat Fest Administrators easier to understand and navigate while allowing volunteers to sign up for tasks and shifts that are assigned to their organization.
The World’s Largest Brat Fest is an event held every Memorial Day weekend – rain or shine – with proceeds benefiting the local charities that help staff the event. Brat Fest is also about enjoying good food at great prices while celebrating Wisconsin’s heritage and the people who make Madison a great place to live.
