With the uncertainty related to hosting events this fall and winter, the Milwaukee Brewers announced today that the annual winter festival, Brewers On Deck, will not be staged in 2021.

Planning for the fan festival is extensive as the event brings together thousands of fans under one roof to build excitement for the upcoming season and provide unique access to Brewers players, coaches and alumni. The decision was made with thoughtful consideration and the health and safety of the community in mind.

"It’s impossible to know at this time what restrictions may be in place that would require a different footprint or format for Brewers On Deck in January," said Brewers President – Business Operations Rick Schlesinger. "It takes many months of lead time for our staff to plan and execute the event, and with so many uncertainties we unfortunately have to make this decision now."
