Wisconsin Liquor Law Changes Coming in 2026 —
Here’s What You Need to Know
Big changes are coming to Wisconsin’s liquor laws in 2026. Private event spaces, barns, and many event venues will soon be required to obtain a liquor license through their county. Requiring each space to act like all other event spaces.
The good news? State-run locations—such as parks, pavilions, and camps—are grandfathered into the current laws, meaning you can still bring in your own alcohol without any new restrictions.
Our best advice: talk directly with your venue owner. They’ll have the most accurate information about how these changes affect their space and what requirements you’ll need to follow.
