Ages 21+ Only, No Exceptions | Re-Entry Allowed
Take Care of the People Taking Care of You
(thanks to Kalamazoo Craft Brew Week)
Be understanding of large crowds. This event is hosted in a large area, however, many folks will be there along with you. Please be prepared to wait, if necessary. Remember, a kind word goes a long way, and your patience is appreciated!
Take Care of Yourself
(thanks to Kalamazoo Craft Brew Week)
This event focuses on craft beer, but not on its abuse. Please be responsible about your consumption. If you are attending this event in a large group, have a designated driver. Or, call a cab.
Does the money from alcohol sales support any local non-profit efforts?
100% of alcohol sales from the event will benefit Bay Area Recycling for Charities, a local non-profit organization providing comprehensive recycling services to the region and contributing an annual portion of its revenues to local charities and summer festivals.
Cash or Credit?
The Microbrew & Music Festival will accept credit cards at the door for ticket purchases. We will also accept credit cards at the merchandise area. Please be prepared to pay with cash only for drink tokens and food.
Will smoking be allowed at the Festival?
The festival will be cigarette and smoke-free, but there will be a small designated smoking zone.
Where do I recycle? What can I compost?
The Microbrew & Music Festival is an eco-conscious event. Please do your part in helping us reduce our impact! Recycle and reuse all that you can, compost your compostables, and toss what you must. Bay Area Recycling for Charities will be on hand to help and to provide bins and information to make the Microbrew & Music Festival a waste-free event.
What about the weather?
The Microbrew & Music Festival will take place no matter the weather! Keep an eye on that weather forecast and please come prepared for whatever weather mother nature brings!
What isn’t allowed?
Please – no infants, no toddlers, no kids, no teens, nor anyone else under the age of 21. No pets, no glass, no growlers, no outside food or beverage (water in a sealed bottle is OK), no weapons, no contraband, no bad attitudes. The Traverse City Microbrew & Music Festival is strictly an event for those age 21 and up. Violators will be asked to leave. Porterhouse Productions reserves the right to refuse entry to or remove anyone from the event, at their discretion.
I won’t be drinking at the event. Why do I have to pay the same price as those who drink?
In addition to microbrew samples, festival attendees will have access to a full lineup of national musical talent, food and beverage vendors, merchandise, festival activities and special events. For this reason, discounted tickets are not available for designated drivers or non-drinkers. Thank you for your understanding.

* Ages 21+ only – no exceptions, please (no infants, toddlers, kids, or teens – thanks for your understanding). Please bring your ID with you and be prepared to show it at the door. Thank you!
