Father’s Day has always been a time for huge celebration on the grounds at Lemon Creek Winery of Berrien Springs, and as the pandemic continues to fade dramatically across the region, the Lemon family is pleased to announce the return of their hugely popular Father’s Day Festival this coming Sunday, June 20th.
Prior to the Covid-19 pandemic, Lemon Creek’s annual celebration of all things dad, was Michigan’s longest running wine festival. After a year off, the Lemon Family looks forward to welcoming everyone back to the winery grounds for their family tradition.
The 36th annual Father’s Day Festival will be held this Sunday, June 20th, from noon-to-7pm. This year’s event will be free and open to the public and will feature two different musical acts.
Brian McClure will be performing from 12:30-3:30pm. A solo show, Brian offers a full band sound consisting of guitar, fiddle, bodhran, and vocals. Songs are mainly Celtic but also include American classics everyone knows and can sing along to. Performing for over 15 years Brian is fast becoming a favorite in the Southwest Michigan region.
Top Secret Band, another local favorite will be performing traditional Lemon Creek festival tunes from 4pm-7pm, featuring classic rock and danceable music from the 60’s to today.
A small Corvette Car show will be on site to continue the festival tradition. Additionally, two food trucks and kettle corn will be onsite to keep you fed and happy throughout the day.
Due to the ongoing uncertainty of Covid, the Lemon family has announced that they will not be offering hayrides or kid’s games this year. You are, however, welcome to bring your own lawn chairs and small snacks. Outside alcohol, however, is prohibited and all coolers will be subject to search.
You’ll find Lemon Creek Winery at 533 E. Lemon Creek Road in Berrien Springs along the Southwest Michigan Wine Trail.
