Baird Center

Easy to get to, and navigate. Information center located in the lobby as well as a rest area in-between events with a charging station and work area. With a microwave and vending machines.

The parking lot across from the center is currently under construction so there are limited areas. Pay parking scan app to pay on phone or use meter.

Plenty of food places near by. No outside food permitted.

The Wisconsin Center was an absolute pleasure to visit for the conference I attended. Very spacious with lots of big conference rooms. The building was immaculate, very well maintained & clean. The staff were very friendly & helpful, answering any and all questions. The bathrooms were also extremely cleaned and stocked with your toiletry needs. They did have a few places inside where you could get coffee or a sandwich. I was overall very pleased and look forward to attending a conference there again

Went and saw the Beyond Monet exhibit at the Wisconsin Center. Plenty of on street parking but it was the Friday after Thanksgiving so perhaps that had something to do with it. Staff all over the place were super helpful. The center was very clean and things were labeled very clearly. Lovely space.

We have been to the Baird Center for the interactive Van Gogh, Monet and, most recently, King Tut exhibits. It is always easy to access with plenty of parking garages nearby. The area feels safe, even for a woman walking alone. The Baird Center staff are over-the-top welcoming and helpful. The center itself is bright, clean and very, very spacious. I look forward to seeing many more exhibits here. The attached photos are from the King Tut exhibit. We have enjoyed several local restaurants after the shows which I will rate separately.

The Baird Center was Phenomenal. I went to a car show there 4 years ago around this time and it seems like yesterday. I love it. The Cars were awesome. I would love to come here again. When did you build The Baird Center?

Updated Review - 11/20/22: Beyond Monet. When I first posted the review on the Wisconsin Center, I tried adding the Beyond Monet exhibit to Google Maps. It still hasn't been approved, so I am adding the photos here... since it was at the Wisconsin Center.

This exhibit is incredible! I would recommend everyone to go... especially if you like Monet. If you don't know Monet's art, I guarantee you will love it after you see this. My wife totally loves Monet. I couldn't believe how many pieces of art I recognized... not knowing they were his.
Go! It takes about 50 minutes. You will love it!

Original Review: The Wisconsin Center is really nice…. Super clean…. Friendly people…. And spotless restrooms! They are building a huge addition to the north side. It is going to be huge! We went to see “Beyond Monet” today. It was incredible! Go see it!

The place can accommodate 1000s of attendees. Plenty restrooms, elevators and stairs to move around all three stories of the center.
Street and off street parking plenty available.
Many hotels within walking distance, a few skybridges to reach the center without going on the street.
We had SIMA snow and ice show in June and ac worked perfectly for the center, backdoor access for installation and front doors to open show room and Ted talks were flawless.
Plus Milwaukee is an amazing city! 👍🙌

Clean and great set up’s for events such as “Beyond Van Gogh”

Location is clean and spacious. Covid protocols are currently suggested.

Parking is available and makes it easy to access the building.

I attended the “Beyond Van Gogh” Exhibit at the Wisconsin Center. The Wisconsin Center staff were helpful and friendly the couple of times that I interacted with them on my visit. I found the exhibit itself to be a feast for the eyes as well as educational. It’s a great event for a date, teach the kids something, or just escape to for an hour. I took my mother to it as a birthday gift and we both enjoyed it.

This was my very first time in Milwaukee for a conference. I enjoyed my experience at the Wisconsin Center. Its a beautiful venue and I received excellent service. I commend them for the family friendly accommodations such as the breastfeeding pod. The interactive MKE sign was fun too.

Great venue for our convention! Plenty of space, the workers were extremely helpful. Clean, spacious.

Awesome place! Multiple floors with carpeting in the coat check room. I went there for a NYE show 2018 into 2019 and had a great time. The main venue area is very accommodating, free water stations, bar, bathrooms etc. Really good sound quality and balance too, but that might have just been the artists I was seeing.
As for parking- there are multiple parking garages surrounding it and I didnt have too much trouble finding a spot (had to drive to the top, but still found one)

Went to the Greater Milwaukee Auto Show today. Wisconsin Center is a great venue for such a large event. Very well put together!

I had a great time when I was there. There were plenty of bathrooms and the lines weren't too terrible. When you first enter you will be patted down and have your bag or purse checked they took my travel mirror, chapstick, and my werthers originals candies. Nothing I can't live without but just to let everyone know they will take your things if you don't want to pay to put the things not allowed in into a locker.

Been here a few times over the years for car shows and work conference. Building is always kept clean.

Great expo center in downtown Milwaukee off Wisconsin Avenue. We go for Brewers On Deck and they handle 15,000 people well...security as well. The food stations could move faster but it was busy and the workers kept up and smiled! We look forward to the Brewer's January Fan Expo every year!

Excellent place and environment, everything very clean. Excellent job in the bathroom always clean👍🏼

Tonight we went to Midwest Gaming Classics to play video games. The convention center is always very clean & the staff are very friendly.

As far as convention centers go, this one is top notch. Always clean, convenient parking, and wide open spaces.

Nice venue! Great facilities, friendly staff!
