The details

Rock the Boat is your ticket to a vibrant Saturday night on the Milwaukee River. This cruise combines scenic views with a party atmosphere, thanks to a live DJ spinning tracks as you glide through the Inner Harbor. It's a cashless event, so make sure to bring your card for the full bar and weekly drink specials.

The cruise offers a unique way to experience Milwaukee's waterways while enjoying music and drinks. It's a popular choice for those looking to kick off their weekend with a mix of relaxation and excitement. Just remember, this is a loud environment, perfect for those who love a lively night out.

🪩

💡 For Club-goers

The DJ starts spinning as soon as the boat departs, so grab your drinks quickly to hit the dance floor early. The bar is cashless, so have your card ready.

✨

💡 For First-timers

Arrive at least 15 minutes early to ensure you find the right boarding area and get settled before the cruise departs. The boat leaves promptly and won't wait for latecomers.
