Join Destination Madison for a “Summer in Madison” celebration on August 22 at the Pyle Center, beautifully situated on the shores of Lake Mendota and steps from the iconic Memorial Union Terrace. This lakeside gathering highlights the vibrant spirit of a Madison summer, with scenic views and fresh energy in the heart of campus. Catch the shuttle or take a stroll down lively State Street (approximately a 23‑minute walk from the convention center), a pedestrian‑only street lined with a variety of shops, restaurants, and museums that connects the Wisconsin State Capitol to the University of Wisconsin–Madison.
