LaborFest 2025
Not all festivals are created equal, and LaborFest is unlike any other!
LaborFest is a celebration of the region’s rich industrial history and the laborers who support the Salt, Lumber & Sand industries. Held on Labor Day weekend, we are in our 6th year of providing high-quality day entertainment. All proceeds go to current community projects to enhance and better our community. Our current project is a beautiful state-of-the-art iconic amphitheater to be built on the shores of Lake Michigan.
