Suds on the Shore: The Craft Beer, Wine and Cocktail Festival Returns for 2026
Summer in Ludington wouldn’t be complete without Suds on the Shore — and we’re excited to welcome the community back for another unforgettable afternoon along the Lake Michigan shoreline. Taking place Saturday, August 15th from 12pm to 5pm at beautiful Rotary Park, Suds on the Shore brings together breweries, wineries, cocktail creators, food vendors, live music, and over a thousand attendees for one of West Michigan’s favorite summer traditions.
Hosted by United Way of the West Shore, this annual fundraiser helps support local programs and services throughout our community. Whether you’re a longtime attendee or planning your first visit, you’ll enjoy local craft beer, wine, ciders, meads, cocktails, great food, and the laid-back lakeshore atmosphere that makes Ludington such a special place.
Be sure to check the Suds on the Shore website regularly as vendors, sponsors, and event updates are announced in the coming months.
We can’t wait to celebrate another incredible summer with you. Cheers!
