Eagles Ballroom / Devine’s Million Dollar Ballroom

2401 West Wisconsin Avenue

The Eagles Ballroom, located at 2401 West Wisconsin Avenue, was built in 1927 as the Milwaukee home of the Fraternal Order of Eagles. From 1939 to 1968, it operated as Devine’s Million Dollar Ballroom under promoter George Devine. During that time, it was a major hub for jazz and swing, hosting legendary acts such as Harry James, Woody Herman, and the Dorsey brothers. Today, the venue is part of The Rave / Eagles Club, a multi-stage concert complex that continues to host a wide range of musical performances.
