A Night of Hope

A Night of Hope

on Thursday, September 18, 2025

The MACC Fund is proud to host our second annual A Night of Hope in honor of National Childhood Cancer Awareness Month. On this special evening, the iconic Daniel Hoan Memorial Bridge will shine gold—the official color of childhood cancer awareness.

This year, The Hoan Group is graciously including A Night of Hope in their annual HOANcoming celebration, helping to elevate our mission and raise awareness of childhood cancer. Hoancoming features live music, a boat parade, and a drone and light show synced to the lights on the Hoan Bridge that will be visible from both water and land. Boaters can enjoy the event from the confluence of the Milwaukee River and Lake Michigan, near the Hoan Bridge, while those attending on land can join in on the celebration from the adjacent Riverwalk or from general viewing areas at locations such as Boone & Crockett, The Cooperage, Milwaukee’s Pierhead Lighthouse, and more.

Guests will board the Edelweiss Harbor Lady for a private river cruise, joining the HOANcoming boat parade along the Milwaukee River. Enjoy dinner, two complimentary drink tickets, and a stunning light and drone show over the Hoan Bridge. After the show, we’ll continue onto Lake Michigan to take in the city skyline and live music by Joe Wray.

Join us in a celebration of Milwaukee – and the hope we create when we unite for Wisconsin’s youngest fighters!
