UPtoberfest is the U.P.’s largest wine and beer festival, held on the beautiful lakefront in downtown Escanaba, MI. 2024 marks the EIGHTEENTH year of the festival, and we hope the most successful as well! This is the 15th year that the festival is being organized by Escanaba’s homebrew club, the Bay de Noc Brewers. They are bringing a wealth of knowledge about beer, homebrewing and festivals to the event as well as volunteering all of their time and efforts. UPtoberfest specializes in featuring Michigan beers and wines, with the majority being from the U.P. and northern Lower Peninsula. Proceeds from UPtoberfest benefit The United Way of Delta County (working on school readiness for our community’s youngest citizens) and other local charities. This year the event is also supporting Face Addiction Now.
