Date & Time

August 7 @ 5 PM - 9 PM

Location

National Mississippi River Museum & Aquarium


The family-favorite summer food and music festival returns to the National Mississippi River Museum & Aquarium. Come on down to the boatyard after hours from 5 PM until 9 PM to indulge in local and regional bites while you enjoy music in the boatyard with the Mississippi River in the background. 

Guests are encouraged to bring lawn chairs or blankets to use; however, a limited number of picnic tables will be available. 

Taste of Summer is open to all ages and does not require general admission. Both beer/seltzer/beverage sales and freewill donations will support the River Museum’s conservation efforts to save endangered species. Food vendors will compete for the People's Choice award, selected by a panel of River Museum team staff, volunteers and community members. 

Ample free parking is available in the public lots outside the River Museum.
