Milwaukee Krampusnacht is happening Sunday, December 6, 2-9pm at Best Place and other businesses in the Historic Brewery District on Juneau Ave between 9th and 11th Street. We set up this event to encourage people to wander around and check stuff out– go shopping on our vendors floors, participate in activities, listen to music and dance, and enjoy food and drink options. Let’s have a hell of a good time together!
A General Admission ticket is required to get into most of our spaces.

Best Place (917 W. Juneau Ave.)
Best Place is located in the beautiful and historic castle-like Pabst offices and visitor center buildings. You can also get a warm drink at the Best Place Cafe and shop for holiday presents in their Gift Shop, both open for the duration of the event. Best Place’s fully stocked bars will be open and you can drinks outside into the event zone.
Great Hall Stage
Capt. Pabst’s Office (in the corner of the Great Hall) will host our White Elephant Exchange– bring a wrapped gift $5-$10 range from 3-7pm, then pick one up after the parade. Great Hall is also the drop-off location for our proud tradition of our annual Toys for Tots toy drive. Please consider bringing a new, unwrapped toy to donate. It’s also your final destination for the Spooky Frog Scavenger Hunt. Pick up a map at Great Hall, Pilot Project, or Barley Room for $5 and bring here when complete.
