WHEN
Saturday, October 7, 2023 from 12-2 pm
We recommend arriving early, as we will cut off ticket sales as competitors run out of their entry.
WHERE
Second Ave in Downtown Alpena. Please check in at the ticket table near the intersection of Chisholm & Second Ave (near Olivet Book & Gift), where you will receive your tasting tin. You can show us your confirmation of your ticket purchase. We will also have a list of those with pre-sale tickets.
OTHER INFO

We will not be operating a bar this year, HOWEVER! You are encouraged to grab a beverage from any downtown business as part of the Social District and bring it to the Second Ave. seating area.
The cook-off is just one activity as part of the Shades of Fall Festival. There will be kids' activities, beer tasting, music, and other fall festivities throughout downtown. View more info here.
