The Harley-Davidson Museum opened its doors in 2008 and in true Harley fashion, it’s been a household name and a must go to spot for visitors and events alike. Fortunately for its guests, they’ve been hosting events since the start and have only steadily increased their ability to accommodate whatever your dream is – indoor or outdoor. With a hearty stack of options, the Harley-Davidson can suit an elegant, clean and crisp soiree or something more industrial and edgy.

Fabulous features of the Harley-Davidson Museum
– All rentals are all included: tables, chairs, linens, china, flatware…that’s a huge money saver!
– The Harley brand, it’s quintessential Milwaukee.
– A complimentary ticket to the museum for each guest and two Harleys in each of our main spaces for photo ops.
What question do corporate clients forget to ask before their event?:
They don’t ask to see the space before hand. I recommend to get on-site to really imagine the space. It’s hard to fully imagine our property. We do have 360-degree virtual tours on our website, but because our buildings are separate and if you have to go on the skywalk for a breakout meeting, it just helps to understand the proximity.
Do you do corporate event planning?:
We do our standard day of coordinating but for larger needs, we recommend local coordinators.
What is your favorite thing about corporate events at the Harley-Davidson Museum?
Some of our favorite corporate events are when companies are looking for an off-site activity from a WI Center convention and they really want to impress their guests. Everybody is from out of town and they get a chance to go through the museum and have a great time.
