Festivities!
Festivities start with the Frostbite 5K Run/Walk, perfect for thawing out and working up a thirst. Registration is $35 per runner, which includes entry to the after-party and concert.
This year’s concert will be headlined by The Crane Wives, a Grand Rapids indie/folk/rock/pop band. The lineup, stacked with Michigan-made bands, also features Americana duo The Crosscut Kings; Melophobix, a cage-free funk band and The Hacky Turtles, purveyors of fine funk rock infused with dirty folk. Live music starts at the Perrin Pub at 3 p.m.
Guests can enjoy the show from inside the heated tent, make s’mores around an outdoor bonfire while sipping hot chocolate or specialty beers, watch wood carving displays and visit the onsite cigar rolling lounge. Food will be available from food trucks including Daddy Pete’s BBQ, Patty Matters and Pizza Parliament.
Concert admission is $10 or a donation to Kids’ Food Basket from their wish list:
- Toasted oat cereal
- Goldfish/Cheez-It crackers
- Snack-size zipper pouches
- Pretzel twists
- Dried fruit
