If you are familiar with the Harley-Davidson Museum, then you must be aware of a tent structure there in Milwaukee called Chrome. The structure, designed with special events in mind, is enjoying its final days under the sun, as it will be replaced with a new one later this year. 1 photo
On the same day Harley-Davidson announced it is spinning off the LiveWire nameplate into a brand of its own, the bike maker also revealed the birth of a new event space called Garage at the museum location. Slotted to begin construction later this summer, the venue is expected to be completed with the help of 1903 Events in the spring of next year.

MILWAUKEE - There will be a new space to host your events at the Harley-Davidson Museum in 2022. The Garage is an 8,200-square-foot event space that will break ground later this year, the museum, along with 1903 Events, announced Monday. We’ve all been missing the fun that comes when friends and families gather to celebrate, said Bill Davidson, Vice President of the Harley-Davidson Museum. And we know there are a lot of people who are looking forward to coming together in person in the near future. This new event space will give our 1903 Events team the opportunity to deliver unique experiences that can only be found on our campus. This investment represents our growing commitment to the community, to the city of Milwaukee, which Harley-Davidson has called home for 118 years.

A new event venue will be constructed on the campus of the Harley-Davidson Museum.
A groundbreaking is planned this summer for a one-story building with an 8,200-square-foot event venue. It is expected to be completed in Spring 2022.
The new venue will replace Chrome, a seasonal tent structure used for formal events. It will be built at the southern end of the campus, with views of the South Menomonee Canal and Menomonee River.
