MILWAUKEE (October 17, 2024)Visit Milwaukee is excited to announce a new partnership with the Milwaukee Admirals, unveiling a first-ever collaborative warmup jersey. The jerseys will make their debut during the Admirals’ home opener on Saturday, October 19 at 6 p.m. at UW-Milwaukee Panther Arena.

“At Visit Milwaukee, we’re committed to highlighting all the exciting experiences our city has to offer, and we’re thrilled to partner with the Admirals in such a unique way,” said Josh Albrecht, chief marketing officer. “This partnership not only promotes Milwaukee to Admirals fans but also aligns with our broader efforts to support local teams through our sports division, Sports Milwaukee. The Admirals have played an important role in bringing visitors and championships to our city, and we’re excited to continue building that legacy.”

Sports Milwaukee, the sports sales division of Visit Milwaukee, works to bring high-profile sporting events and tournaments to the city, and this new collaboration is a natural extension of that effort.
