Racine HarborFest takes 2027 off, plans a 2028 return
RACINE, Wis.— The musical festival HarborFest won’t return to the shores of Lake Michigan until 2028. “We have decided to take a one-year hiatus from organizing Racine HarborFest for several reasons,” HarborFest organizer Gary Suokko said in an emailed response to Racine County Eye. “As you can imagine, putting on an event of this size requires significant sponsorship support, numerous volunteers, and a tremendous amount of work from both Jeff Marsh and me.

His collaboration with Frankie Sullivan on “Eye of the Tiger,” written for the 1982 film Rocky III, connected those songwriting skills to a very specific challenge: giving a boxer’s comeback its musical pulse.
