Visit Milwaukee and its partners at Team Lammi announced on July 9 the debut of the second season of “Milwaukee Made,” presented by Marquette University, El Rey Foods, Herb Kohl Philanthropies, and Milwaukee World Festival.

The three-episode television season celebrates the people, culture, and innovation that define Milwaukee as a premier destination to live, work, and visit. As one of the newest cities recognized by the Michelin Guide, Milwaukee continues to earn national attention for its thriving culinary scene and vibrant visitor experience. 

Airing July 11 through September 5 across 13 key Midwest markets, including Milwaukee, the new season builds on the success of the acclaimed first season and continues the momentum of the Emmy-nominated ”Good Things Brewing” television program.

“This season of ‘Milwaukee Made’ takes our storytelling even deeper into the heart of this city,” said Peggy Williams-Smith, President & CEO of Visit Milwaukee. “From the food innovators feeding the nation from our kitchens, to the fashion and footwear icons putting Milwaukee on the global style map, to the very best stories we’ve told across both seasons, this series is a testament to the creativity that continues to elevate Milwaukee’s reputation and draw in travelers of all kinds.”

Visit Anaheim on July 6 unveiled “Made to Play,” a new destination brand inspired by the energy that comes from bringing world-class attractions, unforgettable experiences, and authentic local culture together in one place.

“Made to Play” reflects a city where play extends far beyond rides and attractions. It’s found in discovering a neighborhood brewery, cheering on the Anaheim Ducks, exploring local art, sharing a meal, or “stumbling upon moments visitors never expected to find,” according to the organization. It was developed through an extensive research and strategy process in partnership with Collider Lab.

The new brand made its public debut during a community celebration that brought together residents, local businesses, artists and destination partners. Following its public debut, the new brand will continue to roll out across Visit Anaheim’s marketing, digital channels, visitor communications, community partnerships and destination experiences in the months ahead.

“Anaheim is entering an exciting period of growth, with transformational developments like OCVIBE, DisneylandForward and new investments reshaping our destination,” said Mike Waterman, President & CEO of Visit Anaheim. “‘Made to Play’ captures that momentum while inviting visitors to experience the full Anaheim story, from world-famous attractions to local businesses, cultural experiences and memorable moments that make every visit unique.”
