Destination Madison

Madison, WI's downtown district is nestled between two picturesque lakes—Mendota and Monona. It’s easy to get to Madison with direct flights to and from major cities nationwide, from Denver to Dallas to D.C. Here, you’ll find a lakeside convention center, 12,000+ hotel rooms and green urban spaces that are safe, sustainable and accessible. Innovation thrives here, fueled by a knowledge economy anchored by top ten research institution, the University of Wisconsin–Madison. The city’s compact, gold-rated walkability and easy airport access make navigation between hotels, venues and restaurants a breeze. Attendees feel welcome and safe exploring beyond the convention center, uncovering scenic views and local flavors. From James Beard-honored chefs to Nobel-level intellectual capital, Madison delivers big on value and vibe. We’re proud that our destination was designed with green meetings in mind, from the Frank Lloyd Wright-designed, LEED-certified Monona Terrace Community & Convention Center to the 29 acres of greenspace on Willow Island at Alliant Energy Center. Madison features more than 12,000 rooms and 400,000 sq. ft. of meeting space available to accommodate a wide variety of events.
