While you’re exploring GuitarTown, make sure to stop into Club 400 — an official stop on the Les Paul heritage experience and a historic part of Waukesha’s music legacy.
Originally established in 1894, Club 400 became a nightclub in 1948 when George and Ralph Polsfuss — Les Paul’s father and brother — opened the venue after major renovations. Named after the Chicago Northwestern Locomotive #400, the club welcomed Les Paul himself for performances during the 1940s and 1950s and has continued supporting live music ever since.
To help celebrate GuitarTown, Club 400 will also be offering:
🍻 $1 Off Drinks
🍴 50% Off Appetizers
🎶 And when the festival wraps up, keep the night going at Club 400! We’ll be open after the event, so stop in for drinks, music, food specials, and a chance to experience one of Waukesha’s legendary music landmarks.
