Benefits of Partnership
Visit Milwaukee creates economic impact and supports a stronger, more inclusive community by promoting the Greater Milwaukee area as a premier tourism destination. Partnering with us ensures that you will play an integral part in the story we tell leisure, convention, and business visitors every day. Visitors to the Greater Milwaukee area spend over $3.5 billion annually, and as the area’s official destination marketing organization, we can help leverage this economic impact.
