INDUSTRY EXPERIENCE & LEADERSHIP
Introducing a new gigantic Midwest show presented by two leaders in the industry with a combined 50 years of experience.

Unbeatable Location
This exciting new show is just 10 minutes from Milwaukee Mitchell International Airport and one hour north of Chicago O’Hare International Airport, and takes place in the just-completed $465 million expansion of the Baird Center. It boasts 332,000 sq ft of selling space and will allow us to grow to 1,700 booths. Our low booth fee will quickly fill the venue and create a “must attend” show that will attract vendors from across the globe. Come be part of the excitement!
Highly Attended Event
Our events are the most-attended shows in their regions. The Milwaukee Show is unique in that it is committed to reaching 100,000 customers who attended similar shows in the ‘old’ Baird Center (when it was named the Wisconsin Center) during the last ten years.
Our Philosophy
Our business philosophy remains the same as always: advertise on a massive scale, offer exhibitors the lowest booth fee (measured as ‘cost per customer’), do it at the largest / best venue, and invest profits back into the show to continuously improve for the benefit of all stakeholders.
We thank you for your interest in our show. Come grow with us.
