Getting there

10 km (6.2 mi) separates Baird Center from Milwaukee Mitchell International Airport (MKE) — normal for a city venue, and worth a line in the joining instructions rather than a shuttle contract.

Being 0.9 km (0.6 mi) from the middle of Milwaukee means attendees can walk from their hotel, which removes the single most complained-about line in most event budgets.

The published number for the venue is +1 414 908 6000.

Milwaukee has 124 venues mapped in total and a population of 563,531. The Milwaukee guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.

Formats this suits

Function space is bought as a set, not as a room. Ask Baird Center which spaces are on the same floor and which need a lift, because a breakout two levels away loses a third of its audience at every changeover.

Pricing a full house here

A Baird Center programme at 240 activated attendees — a plausible programme at a venue of this kind in Milwaukee — prices like this. Nothing is charged for the first 50, and nothing at all is charged past 1,000.
