A One-of-a-Kind Setting for Life’s Biggest Moments
Historic trains. Views of the Fox River. A venue unlike any other.
Picture your celebration surrounded by locomotives that have carried presidents, powered a nation, and outlasted a century – set against the banks of the Fox River in Green Bay, Wisconsin. It’s a backdrop your guests won’t find anywhere else.
Whether you’re planning an intimate micro-wedding or a large-scale gathering for hundreds, the National Railroad Museum offers a setting your guests will be talking about long after the day is over. From weddings to milestone birthdays to corporate events and celebrations of every kind, we have a space built for it – and an Events team that will help you bring it to life.
We are proud to be a welcoming venue for every couple and every family, and we’re happy to offer discounted rates to National Railroad Museum members.
