How attendees reach it

Milwaukee Mitchell International Airport (MKE) is 13 km (8.1 mi) out, a standard transfer of twenty to forty minutes outside rush hour.

2.9 km (1.8 mi) out from the middle of Milwaukee — close enough to book a downtown hotel block, far enough that people will expect transport laid on after dark.

Programming it

At 1,530 seats this takes a full conference in one room. Confirm what the space looks like with the seating cleared, because that is the version most conferences actually book.

  • networking mixers

    An independent space with its own character, which a mixer benefits from more than a conference does.

  • fundraisers and galas

    A room with a personality is worth more at a gala than square footage is.

  • community meetings

    Room for 1,530 covers most community and member meetings.
