Milwaukee – The Milwaukee Brewers, in partnership with UW Credit Union, will unveil the latest addition to American Family Field, the UW Credit Union Plaza, on Friday, June 26, with an official ribbon cutting at 4:30 p.m., followed by a keg tapping at the biergarten.

Located adjacent to the pedestrian bridge spanning Wisconsin Highway 175/Brewers Boulevard, the new outdoor destination expands the ballpark experience beyond the game, offering fans a vibrant, community-focused gathering space before Brewers games.

A New Gathering Space for Brewers Fans

At the heart of the plaza is an authentic Wisconsin biergarten, complemented by a performance stage that will serve as a hub for live entertainment including Brewers Dance Crew performances, Theme Night celebrations, and local bands and DJs throughout the season.

Beverage service will be available on the plaza, and for select games, food trucks and other vendors will offer light food options.

Family-Friendly Attractions

Designed with families in mind, the UW Credit Union Plaza features attractions for fans of all ages.

Younger visitors can explore the Joie Play Yard, a playground inspired by Wisconsin's agricultural heritage featuring slides and interactive play elements.

Fans can also enjoy a Wisconsin-themed mini-golf course with holes inspired by iconic state symbols and landmarks, including:

  • The Hoan Bridge
  • The Famous Racing Sausages®
  • The Driftless Region
  • The Elroy-Sparta Trail

The course also includes a Lake Michigan-inspired water feature, a six-foot windmill, and a six-foot Barrelman figure honoring Brewers heritage.

"UW Credit Union is thrilled to bring ballpark-level energy to a free community space," said UW Credit Union Senior Director of Member Sales and Service, Fe Johnson. "This Plaza is for the fans. It celebrates our Wisconsin roots while providing an entertaining, family-friendly experience that makes game day even more memorable."
