WELCOME TO MILWAUKEE
Milwaukee transforms itself each season - bringing to its residents and visitors activities to entertain both young and old alike. We are the City of Festivals! Summers are filled with music and food festivals at our expansive and majestic lake front parks. From Summerfest, Bastille days, Italian, German and Polish Fest to Jazz in the Park - enjoying the summer is about fun, sun and fireworks - a tradition of Milwaukee's Festivals. Our winters are filled with sport activities including ice skating, downhill and cross country skiing and sledding. Our sled hills are legendary and part of our greatest treasure, the Milwaukee County Parks. The arts play a significant role in Milwaukee. We are home to a world renowned Symphony, a grand Opera Company, Milwaukee Ballet, a theatre district and a generous community that supports these important city assets. Major league sports are not limited to our beloved Green Bay Packers. The Milwaukee Bucks pro-basketball, Milwaukee Brewers Baseball, Admirals Hockey and Soccer play a significant role in our community. The revitalization of our downtown has opened the door to new and innovative restaurants and clubs. Nightlife in Milwaukee is full of energy and excitement and sees major internationally recognized talent performing at various concert venues throughout the city.
From great shopping, international foods, a wide range of music and sports, Milwaukee is the best kept secret of the Midwest.
