Marcus Center for the Performing Arts

Stage your special event at one of Milwaukee’s most beautiful locations on the city’s popular Riverwalk with elegant and comfortable rooms for groups of 25 – 2300.

Our extensive exterior lighting project has given us an even more exciting look, which has transformed the building and made the Center the showplace of the neighborhood.

Combine your business meeting or reception with a live theatrical performance and provide your guests with the type of unforgettable experience that only the Marcus Center can offer.

Because “there’s no business like show business” contact us when you would like to produce a spectacular professionally staged event.
