All Aboard!

Port Milwaukee! We're excited to share news of a 200% increase in cruise ships planned to dock in Milwaukee in 2019. Twelve ships are scheduled to arrive in Milwaukee over the course of the 2019 season, bringing a total of nearly 4,000 passengers as part of their tour of the Great Lakes. Look out for upcoming volunteer opportunities to share our hospitality and help welcome passengers and crew members to our great city!

Great Press

2019 continues to deliver great press with hits for our communications team coming in from as near as Midwest Living and as far as Vosges Matin, a French newspaper.

Ryder Cup 2020

Excitement continues to mount for the 2020 Ryder Cup, which will be played at Whistling Straits. Just this week, Wisconsin native Steve Stricker was named captain of the U.S. Ryder Cup Team. Although the tournament will be taking place in Kohler, Milwaukee will be an important hub for the media, event staff, and attendees. Make sure to save the date (September 22-27, 2020). Read More >
