Give Attendees More Than an Agenda
Between sessions, attendees can grab coffee in The Village, discover local restaurants along North Avenue, shop at Mayfair Mall and The Mayfair Collection, or get outside along the Menomonee River Parkway and Oak Leaf Trail.
With five distinct districts to explore, Wauwatosa makes it easy to turn a meeting into a fuller experience, whether your group has an open afternoon, a free evening or just an hour between sessions.
Make the Dinner Part of the Experience
Independent restaurants, breweries, bars and gathering spaces give planners options for private dining, casual networking, team celebrations and post-meeting drinks. It's an easy way to introduce attendees to the personality of the community without adding a complicated excursion to the itinerary.
Add a Little Wauwatosa to the Itinerary
Give attendees something memorable to talk about after the meeting ends. Explore public art throughout the community, including the North Avenue Mural Arts District, experience ART 64, or visit Wauwatosa's Thomas Dambo troll. Build in time for a walking tour, local shopping or an outdoor break along the parkway.
These are the kinds of experiences that can turn a meeting location into part of the meeting itself.
