Miller Park

Top choice in Milwaukee

LoginSave

From April through September, the National League Milwaukee Brewers play baseball at fab Miller Park, which has a retractable roof and real grass. Buy tickets online or at the stadium box office. The stadium is about 5 miles west of downtown. The Brewers Line bus runs there on game days; pick it up along Wisconsin Ave.

Games are not just about baseball. The Racing Sausages star in the middle of the 6th inning. To the uninitiated, that's five people in foam-rubber meat costumes who dash around the ball field's perimeter in a madcap foot race. The stadium hosts occasional concerts and other events. Check the website for details.
