Treasures from the Shores to the Stores
Downtown Petoskey is the home to many great events no matter what the season. From our Summer Concerts in the Park to Friday Farm Markets to art fairs and festivals, Petoskey is a great place to join in the fun while shopping with our local merchants.
Concerts in the Park
The 30th annual season of the Charlotte Ross Lee Concerts in the Park series will brighten our Tuesdays and Fridays throughout the summer of 2010. Downtown employees, residents, and visitors can grab their friends, their lunches, and their dancing shoes and join us for a great afternoon or evening concert.
And remember, we don't have rain delays, we just move the whole concert up to the Petoskey Presbyterian Church on the corner of East Mitchell Street and Division Street (across from the Crooked Tree Arts Center).
Beginning June 18 and continuing every Friday through the September, from 8:30 am to 1:00 pm, the block of Howard Street between Mitchell and Michigan Streets (between JC Penney's and Julienne Tomatoes) will be closed off to welcome local producers and the bounty of fresh items that they have to offer. Stop by and find everything that you would need for a wonderful meal, from organic meats to fresh fruits and vegetables, and even flowers to finish off the table.
