Make the Most of Your Appleton Stay

Cultural heart of the Fox Cities

Appleton anchors Wisconsin's Fox River Valley with industrial heritage and contemporary arts culture. The Hearthstone Historic House Museum stands as the world's first home powered by hydroelectricity, while downtown's Fox Cities Performing Arts Center brings Broadway productions to this university town. Lawrence University adds intellectual energy, and the city's connection to Harry Houdini—commemorated at The History Museum at the Castle—provides an unexpected cultural touchstone. The annual Mile of Music festival transforms downtown into a 4-day celebration with 900 live performances.

Riverfront dining and local flavors

The revitalized Fox River corridor offers scenic dining at establishments like Fratellos Waterfront Restaurant and Stone Arch Brewpub, housed in converted industrial buildings honoring the city's paper mill past. College Avenue features Rye Restaurant for refined seasonal cuisine alongside historic gathering spots. Riverfront trails connect natural beauty with urban convenience, while High Cliff State Park on Lake Winnebago provides limestone escarpments just 20 minutes away.

Convenient access and regional exploration

Appleton International Airport delivers direct connections to major hubs. The city serves as an ideal base for exploring Green Bay's Lambeau Field, Door County's coast, or Oshkosh's aviation museum. Downtown hotels near the Performing Arts Center position you within walking distance of cultural venues and dining.
