About Goodman Center - WI

The Goodman Center in Madison, WI is a two-building community hub offering versatile spaces for a wide range of events. Comprised of the Brassworks Building (214 Waubesa St) and the Ironworks Building (149 Waubesa St), this campus hosts everything from community gatherings to private events in spaces like the Rashke Room and a large 8,800 sq ft gymnasium. Whether you’re planning a small reception or a larger community program, we’ve got you covered with practical details on seating, parking, transit options, and nearby lodging and dining.

Note: The center traces its roots back to Atwood Community Center and expanded in 2018 with Brassworks. It’s not a single-purpose concert hall but a flexible, family-friendly venue that supports a variety of event types.

Seating varies by space: the Rashke Room in the Ironworks Building accommodates 48 guests at 60-inch round tables (eight per table) or roughly 70 guests in theater-style setup. The Gymnasium spans 8,800 square feet with bleachers that provide about 80 seats total (roughly 40 per side). For planning, consider the layout that best fits your event size and flow.

Parking includes the Ironworks lot, the St. Bernard's Church lot (visitor yellow stalls), and the Brassworks lot (reserved at certain times). Street parking and walkable routes nearby offer additional options. For transit, use the map’s transit icon to view Madison Metro bus lines since the campus is accessible by bus.

Nearby hotels such as The Edgewater (1001 Wisconsin Pl) and Graduate Madison (601 Langdon St) provide convenient options for out-of-town guests. We can help connect you with affiliate partners for lodging and dining that fit your event schedule and budget.
