Hop-hop hooray! Spring has sprung, and Easter is just a week away! The most egg-centric holiday of the year, Easter is the perfect opportunity to get together with family, enjoy everyone's favorite hybrid meal (brunch) and break out your pastel colors. With the holiday so close, quick like a bunny, let's map out your ultimate Easter plans!
City of Steeples
With more than 1,000 houses of worship throughout the Greater Milwaukee area, the city has earned its nickname as the City of Steeples. Explore a handful of the many churches, synagogues, mosques and temples that peek through the city’s skyline. Their unique and beautiful architecture is a testament to the city’s many different cultures' influence on Milwaukee.
Easter Eats
Don’t waste your appetite on chocolate bunnies and jellybeans. Leave Easter brunch to the professionals this holiday season at one of Milwaukee’s fabulous restaurants. Savor the delightful flavors of heavenly smoked ham, sizzling bacon and fluffy scrambled eggs without the hassle or mess at one of the city’s incredible brunch stops.
Family Fun
One of the early signs of spring, Easter is the perfect time to shake off the winter blues and spring forward with the family. No matter what you’re all into, there's tons to do for your entire crew. From the exhibits of Discovery World and the Milwaukee Public Museum to the excitement of a Milwaukee Bucks or Milwaukee Admirals game, a stroll through Schlitz Audubon Nature Center or a show at First Stage Theater, Milwaukee has something for the whole family.
Hop on The Hop
Try out your Easter bunny impression and hop on The Hop! While almost entirely unrelated to the holiday, The Hop is a fast, easy and fun way to get around downtown.
A Good Night's Rest
Heading to town to visit family and friends? Or maybe you’re taking advantage of a few extra days off work or school. Don’t forget to make a reservation at one of the city’s fantastic hotels. Whether you choose the Hilton Milwaukee City Center with its restaurant themed after Milwaukee’s rich brewing tradition at Miller Time Pub or The Kimpton Journeyman Hotel in the hip and trendy Third Ward, you’ll find the perfect pad for your getaway.
