THE ARGO is more than a music venue.

THE ARGO is a premium entertainment venue coming in Fall 2025 to the historic Fox Bay Theater just north of downtown Milwaukee.

Designed by industry veterans who’ve lived the highs and lows of live music, it features a 700-capacity entertainment hall, a full-service bar and kitchen, and a flexible event space for weddings, festivals, private celebrations, and more.

Built to elevate both experience and impact, THE ARGO donates $1 from every ticket to music industry wellness efforts and prioritizes care for the artists and crews who make it all happen.

This isn’t just another venue—it’s a better space for unforgettable nights, elevated gatherings, and meaningful experiences.

THE ARGO offers something for everyone — from live concerts and comedy shows to swing dancing, brunch events, and family-friendly kids’ shows.
