Cheers to the First TC Bourbon Fest
Feb. 11, 2023
We have cherry festivals and comedy festivals and film festivals…and now, we have a bourbon festival! The inaugural TC Bourbon Fest heads to town on Saturday, Feb. 18, at Visions Weddings & Banquets on West Bay Shore Drive. You’ll get to explore more than 200 bourbons and whiskeys alongside cocktails (think Manhattans, Old Fashioned, Mint Juleps, and Kentucky Kisses) and high-end bottle selections. Most of the makers on the list are the giants of the industry, but you’ll see local establishments like Traverse City Whiskey in the mix, too. The festival will also have beer, wine, and nonalcoholic beverage options, plus food trucks and live music to enjoy. Tickets start at $50 (purchased online ahead of time, $60 at the door) and include a souvenir glass and 10+ tasting tickets. Event proceeds benefit Friends of the River, a nonprofit that works to improve water quality, access, and awareness on the rivers in Michigan. Learn more at traversecitybourbonfest.com.
