We’ll be popping corks, tapping kegs and pouring your favorite spirits ’til sunset. Come party with us at Weko Beach — with nothing but gorgeous Lake Michigan to the west and Southwest Michigan’s premier wine, beer, cider and spirit makers all in one place. This event is the perfect chance for you and your friends to try new drinks or stick with your go-to favorites using beverage tickets purchased when you arrive. There will be water, soda and juices for your designated driver and you, too.
Dance or chill to our music makers at no extra charge. We’ve stacked the lineup with your kind of beach music. Listen by the lake to bands pumping out their playlists all festival long.
Favorite food makers will be here, too! In addition to the drink tastings and music entertainment, popular local food vendors will dish up fresh, summer flavors that taste great with your wine, beer, cider and spirit choices.
Tickets are ONLY $10 per person ages 12 & up from now until May 31! On June 1, tickets go up to $20 so buy early to save money; children under 12 years are free. Invite your friends and family to join you for a great day at the beach, and buy tickets to save NOW!
BRING CASH! This is a cash-only event, so please bring money to buy your drink tasting tickets ($1 each) and food from our vendors.
Buy NowThere will be free parking with free shuttles. That’s right. No charge! Shuttles will run frequently throughout the event so you can come and go when you want. Parking locations will be just a couple miles away from Weko Beach at Eagle Technologies and AEP. They will both be monitored by the Berrien County Mounted Division. There will be no parking available at Weko Beach.
There will be no hotel shuttles this year. Plan in advance to park in the event parking lot and take a shuttle from there.
Come rain or shine! There will be plenty of room for you under the big tents. You’re welcome to bring your own camping chairs. However, please leave your pets, coolers, drinks and food outside the gates – they’re not allowed on festival grounds. No smoking is permitted, either.
