Place Like No Other…
 With so much to offer, it's hard to put a finger on what exactly makes Greater Green Bay the perfect destination to get away from it all. Could it be the beauty of the rolling countryside, the grand waters of Lake Michigan and Green Bay, the rich European and Native American heritage, the thrill of cheering crowds and exciting sports or even the grand maritime traditions? In a word, yes.
Home to the oldest settlement in the Midwest, Green Bay thrives off the rich, historical traditions forged by Jean Nicolet and those who have followed him. European settlers from Germany, France, Bohemia, Belgium, Ireland, Poland and Scandinavia brought their rich cultural traditions to create a true American melting pot. Greater Green Bay's rich ethnic heritage continues to grow and diversify, but never forgets its roots as European influences can still be seen in the region's unique architecture, festive celebrations and smiling faces.
High caliber professional and collegiate sports teams, including the Green Bay Packers, UW-Green Bay Fighting Phoenix, and the United States Hockey League's Green Bay Gamblers give fans plenty to cheer about.
However, sports in Green Bay aren't limited to spectator status. From winter activities including snowmobiling and cross-country skiing to summer favorites like golf, hiking, biking, boating and fishing, Greater Green Bay has plenty of sporting adventures to get your blood pumping.
The fun doesn't stop with sports. With spectacular art and seasonal festivals and traditional heritage events such as Native American Pow-Wows, Greater Green Bay's year round calendar of events offers something for everyone. And once the sun goes down, the region takes on a life of its own with plenty of nightlife including fine restaurants, casino gambling, and comedy and blues clubs.
 As night falls, Greater Green Bay takes on a life of its own. Attractions range from fine restaurants, to comedy clubs to blues clubs. Feeling lucky?
