Ludington hosts the annual craft beer tasting festival, aptly named Suds on the Shore from 12pm-5pm at Rotary Park (formerly City Park) at Gaylord and Court Streets. This popular event, scheduled in mid-August, is fun for participants and is also a fundraising effort for the United Way of Mason County.
The festival features vendors from all around Michigan, with over 50 represented in 2021. The vendors serve over 100 samples of craft beer, hard cider and Michigan wine, while participants also enjoy live music and food.
