Plans at Epic Systems Corp. would expand its Deep Space conference center, adding a new, smaller auditorium and dining room, the Wisconsin State Journal reports. The proposed addition would help accommodate the company’s annual conference, which draws thousands of attendees to Verona.
The proposed 23,218-square-foot expansion could reportedly be open in time for Epic’s User Group Meeting in August 2026. Plans include an underground space with a 66,000-square-foot grass roof, and a 750-seat auditorium situated above a dining room space.
The existing Deep Space infrastructure features an 11,500-seat auditorium and multistory lobby facing out toward the farmland surrounding Epic to the west. The new and existing spaces would be connected by a skybridge tunnel.
The plans will go before Verona’s planning commission for consideration at its March 3 meeting.
