Baird Center Expansion Project

Unveiling the Baird Center Expansion

The expansion project journey reached its pinnacle after years of meticulous planning, culminating in a unanimous vote of approval from the board of directors to proceed.

In May 2024, the city will celebrate the grand opening of the $456 million Baird Center expansion project. Already a not-to-be-missed destination, Milwaukee will now be the proud home of the Midwest’s most innovative conference and convention center.

Every aspect of the expansion project has been thoughtfully and meticulously planned with a focus on innovation; sustainability; equity, and diversity and inclusion.
