Pasty Fest 2017 UPDATE

Pasty Fest 2017 is shaping up nicely!  We have some great traditions and awesome additions this year.  Grab a pasty and take a stroll along 5th St. to scope out all of our vendors from noon – 6pm. Blend up your own smoothie on the Fender Blender! Watch a smelting demo! Join ‘47 North Fusion’ and shake your tailfeathers to some belly dancing with live drummers! At 1:00pm join in a pasty eating contest or cheer the contestants along and at 2:00pm line up on 6th St. to watch the parade go by.  

Check out the six musicians we’ll have this year, from county and blues to a group of young aspiring musicians named Last Minute Mile. Adults, have a cold beer and a pasty in hand and play some lawn games on Scott St.! Kids, there will be plenty of games for you as well along with some really cool prizes!

New this year! 50 attendees will be able to participate in the taste testing of each of our Pasty vendors. Purchase a pack of 4 oz. sliders and vote on your favorite! You will determine the winner this year!

We do have an alternate location in case of inclement weather: this year, we’ll be utilizing The Keweenaw Heritage Center if need be. However, Mother Nature owes us the perfect summer day for Pasty Fest this year!

There is no where else you should be other than 5th St. in Calumet on June 24th for the 14th Annual Pasty Fest.  If you haven’t already marked your calendar for June 24 do it now! See you all there!
