09/11/2026

🇺🇸 On this 25th anniversary of 9-11... we join in remembrance of those we lost and honor the first responders, military members and veterans who have given so much to our country and communities.

In an expression of our gratitude, Venuworks of Oshkosh is answering the call by Veteran Tickets Foundation - Vet Tix to help give more of those individuals, and their families, the opportunity to attend events and create meaningful memories together.

Every ticket makes a difference. And we support Vet Tix's goal in making this September the first month in Vet Tix history to distribute more than ONE MILLION tickets.

Thanks to the generosity of two of our critical partners - Laughable Productions and Fly Circus & Aerial Arts - we are honored to donate 100 seats to the Oshkosh’s Funniest Comedian Finale on Sept. 26 and 50 seats to Cirque Macabre on Oct. 30.

Full details and signup at vettix.org.

Thank you all for your service and sacrifices! ♥️🤍💙

🎣 Fish Fry Friday Update! 🎣

Due to a nationwide bluegill shortage, we're making a little change to tonight's Fish Fry menu at 1212 Sports Pub & Grill inside the Oshkosh Arena.

The good news? We're bringing in a true Wisconsin favorite... WALLEYE!

With Lake Winnebago practically in our backyard, there's no fish more fitting for a Friday night in Oshkosh. Known for some of the best walleye fishing around, it's only right we serve up a local favorite while bluegill remains hard to source.

Join us from 4 to 8 p.m. and choose from:
🐟 Walleye
🐟 Lake Perch
🐟 Southern Catfish

All dinners include your choice of fries, coleslaw, tartar sauce and rye bread or cheddarhead biscuits.

We also have our double-bubble drink specials on all rail mixers and domestic tap beers. That's buy one, get one free. Another Wisconsin favorite!

Coming with the kiddos? Our kids meals are just $8 and include drink and fries with kid-friendly options - plus coloring sheets to keep them occupied while you wait.

Some things change, but a great Wisconsin fish fry never goes out of style. Hope to see you tonight at the 1212! 🍻🐟

Calling all Bears and Vikings fans: We're auctioning off some SWEET suite seats from our partners at Ticketmaster!

This incredible NFL experience package includes four tickets to a Chicago Bears suite at historic Soldier Field plus a parking pass for the Bears' showdown against the Minnesota Vikings, with kickoff at noon on Sunday, Sept. 20. Enjoy the game in premium suite comfort while taking in all the action from one of the NFL's most iconic venues. Seats are Suite C26, Row SRO, Seats 17-20.

Now, before any Packers fans start questioning our judgment, there's a good reason this Bears package found its way into the Oshkosh Arena. This special add-on item is helping to raise additional funds in support of VenuWorks of Oshkosh/Oshkosh Arena Executive Director Andy Linton and his fight against cancer.

And here's a fun football connection: Andy's nephew is Tyson Bagent, who just happens to be the Bears' backup quarterback. So while the rest of Oshkosh may be waving green-and-gold towels, there is definitely one family cheering a little louder when Chicago takes the field.

Whether you're a lifelong Bears fan, a Vikings supporter looking to crash the party or a Packers fan willing to set aside a century-old rivalry for a great cause, this is a rare opportunity to enjoy an unforgettable NFL game while supporting Andy's cancer journey.

BIDDING RUNS NOW through NOON WEDNESDAY, SEPT. 16! The link to register and bid is here: https://galabid.com/bears_vs_vikings

Bid generously. Cheer responsibly. And if you're a Packers fan who happens to win, we promise not to tell your neighbors. 🏈
