Mad Gluten Free Fest is BACK for its third year!

Mad Gluten Free Festival returns on Sunday, June 7, 2026 from 3–6PM at Breese Stevens Field in Madison for an afternoon of amazing local gluten free food and good company — and best of all, admission is FREE!

🌟 Want the VIP experience? Snag a VIP Hour ticket ($20) for 2–3PM to get early access and extra special treats before the doors open to the public!

Madison, your community radio needs you!

WORT 89.9 FM's Summer Pledge Drive kicks off May 30th through June 7th — and this year, it matters more than ever.

With federal funding cuts hitting community media hard, WORT is counting on the people who love it most: you, their neighbors and fans.

Hundreds of volunteers walk through those doors every week, powering most of the on-air programming with the knowledge, passion, and creativity you won't find anywhere else on the dial.

But volunteers alone can't keep the lights on. WORT needs your financial support to survive.

As a proud Dane Buy Local member, WORT FM embodies exactly what it means to support local businesses and keep our community's character alive. When you pledge to WORT, you're investing in Madison — plain and simple.

✅ WORT is a 501(c)3 nonprofit — all donations are 100% tax deductible.

📞 Call to pledge: (608) 256-2001
💻 Donate online: wortfm.org/donate

Don't let federal budget cuts silence a Madison treasure. Pledge today. Support local. Support WORT.
