Face the Music: Free Live Music Along the Art Coast®
There’s something magical about summer in the Art Coast—the sun sets a little slower, the breeze rolls in a little softer, and the music? It’s everywhere. This is when Saugatuck, Douglas, and Fennville come alive with the sound of live and totally free music all season long. So grab your blanket or lawn chair and get ready to treat your ears.
Music in the Park
Every Wednesday from June 17 through September 2, Wicks Park Gazebo transforms into Saugatuck’s riverfront rhythm spot. From 7 to 9 p.m., you’ll find families and friends gathering along the Kalamazoo River with lawn chairs and picnic baskets in hand as local and regional bands set the tone for a perfect midweek jam session. Dancing is optional but highly encouraged.
Felt Estate Summer Concert Series
The Felt Estate hosts its beloved annual Summer Concert Series this year on July 2, 9, 16, and 23, with performances starting at 7 p.m. Admission is free with food and beverages available for purchase beginning at 6 p.m. With the mansion as your backdrop and music in the air, it’s an unforgettable evening every time.
Music in the Vineyards
Enjoy live music along with vineyard views at Fenn Valley Vineyards every Thursday from 5:30 – 7:30 p.m. from May 28 through September 10 and Saturdays from 2:00 – 5:00 p.m. starting May 30 through October 17.
