Milwaukee’s finest leaders sing their hearts out, not for fame, but for community. Radio Milwaukee is excited to bring back the 88Nine Fall Ball on Friday, September 18.
Every year, we mark the changing of the season with our annual fundraiser that blends rooftop cocktails, bites and an exciting karaoke competition. Singers will take the stage with a live band, all to support Radio Milwaukee’s mission: connecting Milwaukee through music and storytelling.
“We built Fall Ball to be the kind of night people actually want to show up for: good drinks, great food, a rooftop view, and karaoke that turns Milwaukee’s most buttoned-up leaders into the night’s biggest characters,” said Maggie Corry, Radio Milwaukee interim executive director. “It’s a joy to plan, and it directly supports what makes this city sound like itself. So come join the party, and be unserious with us.”
The night begins on Radio Milwaukee’s rooftop with appetizers from DanDan; bites from local food trucks like The New Fashioned Grilled Cheese Company, Chucho’s Red Tacos, Dastardly Dogs and Pete’s Pops; and refreshing drinks by Discourse Coffee. Then, guests head downstairs for exciting performances by leaders from Marquette University, Milwaukee Turners, Direct Supply, and many more. After “Karaoke for a Cause,” we keep the good vibes going with a dance party featuring DJ Kenny Perez.
WHAT: THE 88NINE FALL BALL
WHEN: September 18 | Rooftop reception at 6 p.m. | Karaoke for a Cause at 8:30 p.m.
