Eau Claire is the largest city in western Wisconsin, located just over an hour’s drive from the Twin Cities. Eau Claire is best known for being home to the University of Wisconsin Eau Claire, contributing a college-town atmosphere to the community along with a penchant for independent thought. The university presence also contributes to Eau Claire’s self-proclaimed title, “The Indie Capital of the Midwest.” Eau Claire’s strong support of independent businesses and many local music festivals bolster the city’s claim to the title as well.

The local music festivals bring the Eau Claire community together, including the Eau Claire Jazz Festival, Rock Fest, Country Fest, Blue Ox, and Country Jam USA. Eau Claire residents also come together to enjoy outdoor recreation at the city’s many picturesque parks, such as Phoenix Park, Carson Park, and Mount Simon Park, in addition to numerous fishing spots along the Chippewa and Eau Claire rivers.
