Access and arrival

Milwaukee Mitchell International Airport (MKE) is 11 km (6.8 mi) out, a standard transfer of twenty to forty minutes outside rush hour.

A central address is worth more than it looks: no shuttle, no parking plan, and evening sessions that people actually stay for.

The published number for the venue is +1 414 276 7288.

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.

The kind of event it takes

The seats do not move, which is the whole trade. You get sightlines, acoustics and a lighting rig you would otherwise have to rent, and you give up the ability to put tables in the room. Shank Hall is 12th of 24 such houses mapped in Milwaukee.

  • award ceremonies

    Fixed seating, sightlines and a lighting rig are the hard parts, and they are already here.

  • product launches

    A single-track room with a real stage is the right shape for a launch.

  • multi-track conferences

    Works as a plenary house with breakouts booked elsewhere in the city.

The app bill, at this size
