Solstice Celebration w/ Earth Radio (Free Outdoor Show)

  • Speciation Artisan Ales 928 Wealthy St SE Grand Rapids, MI, 49506 United States (map)

Join us for a Solstice weekend full of music, art, nature and beer. We partnered with Blandford to put together a Solstice event series for the ages, including two outdoor concerts, a nature artist market, and even a special beer to commemorate the weekend!

Friday night we welcome the amazing Earth Radio to celebrate Solstice with sounds of the human experience. Earth Radio is a Grand Rapids Future-Soul band… you’ll hear elements of funk, rock, soul, and progressive jazz, reminiscent of Hiatus Kaiyote, Erykah Badu, Radiohead, and Knower, melded together into a sound that is uniquely Earth Radio.

This show will be outside on our patio - we will also be closing our parking lot to accommodate extra people/party! Music from 7-10pm, and this event is 21+ only. Louise Earl will have their smoker out slinging meat and Oso Provisions will also be slinging grub!

Our special solstice beer will also be released in cans and on draft Friday evening, which is a luscious blended Field Beer w/ Dandelion, lavender, bee balm, echinacea & honey. Artwork created by the talented Field Sparrow Studio.

We will also have limited edition Solstice T-shirts featuring the art from Field Sparrow Studio!
