To help you plan your visit, our full exhibitor list is available online and is a great place to start when deciding who you want to see!
Kenosha Community Health Fair
The Kenosha Community Health Fair, presented by Versiti Blood Center of WI, is a popular Expo feature because it gives visitors an interactive way to explore health and wellness resources right here in our community. Every Health Fair vendor provides a free health service or hands-on experience for attendees, making it easy to learn, ask questions, and pick up helpful tools and tips in one visit.
Plus, Versiti will be hosting an on-site blood drive during Expo, giving you an easy opportunity to give back while you’re there.
Fun for the Whole Family: Family Activity Area
Expo is designed to be a true community weekend, and the Family Activity Area, presented by the Kenosha Area Noon Optimist Club, is a big reason why. This space features local nonprofits and organizations focused on kids and families, with games, giveaways, raffles, and interactive fun throughout the weekend. It’s a great stop for families who want to keep little ones engaged while exploring everything else Expo has to offer.
The Great Kenosha Raffle: Win Big While Supporting Scholarships
One of the most exciting parts of Expo is the Great Kenosha Raffle, which supports the Kenosha Area Chamber of Commerce Foundation Scholarship Program. Every ticket helps invest in local students and their future, and you could win $1,000 cash as the grand prize. Plus, you’ll have the chance to win dozens of incredible gift baskets filled with local favorites, experiences, and goodies. Special thanks to our Raffle Sponsor, Wendy Gauss of Gauss House Realty.
Expo Demonstration Area
Want to add a little entertainment to your Expo walk-through? The Expo Demonstration Area, presented by American Place Casino and Everlight Solar, will feature live demonstrations and on-stage moments throughout the weekend. The full schedule is posted on the Expo website!
Food Court Favorites
With so much to see, you’re bound to work up an appetite. Stop by the Expo Food Court for food and drinks available for purchase while you refuel for the rest of your visit. This year’s Food Court lineup includes Luisa’s Pizza, Nothing Bundt Cakes, UW-Parkside Catering, and DSCO Coffee. Thanks to our Food Court sponsors Snap-on Tools and AM 1050 WLIP!
Getting to Expo: Parking and Shuttle Info
Parking is available in two main lots: the lot right outside the Fieldhouse entrance, and The Rita lot just north of the Fieldhouse. The main Expo lot fills up quickly as the day progresses. If it’s full, park in The Rita lot.
AES Transportation will be running a shuttle service from The Rita lot to the Expo entrance, making it easy to get dropped right at the door. Keep an eye out for the signs!
