Event Description

Detroit Bourbon & Blues Festival is an immersive tasting and live music event with American-made whiskey, music performances, and more. On Sunday, August 25, 2024, Detroit’s historic Eastern Market Shed 5 will be transformed into a lively venue in which guests are invited to sip, savor, and enjoy live blues music. In collaboration with Eastern Market’s Sunday Market series, this landmark location offers the perfect site to highlight the rich history of bourbon, blues, and Detroit's impact on these iconic American crafts. As Detroit neighbors, bourbon enthusiasts, and music lovers ourselves– we invite you to join us & celebrate with a glass half full.
