Harborfest is one of the best free 2-day music festivals in the UP, but it’s so much more. It includes a beer and wine tent specializing in craft beers. It has food tents, Kids inflatable activities, a classic car & motorcycle show, a luge demonstration track to try, and the culmination of a fishing tournament with live dock side catch and release. It’s a family oriented event with a party atmosphere at night.
Music performances at HarborfFst are a combination of local bands and major acts out of Chicago. Friday & Saturday HarborFest music has variety including Country, Folk, Blues but with a heavy emphasize on Rock. Each night ends with a HOT headliner band.  Friday night the soulful bluesy fun lovin’ band Bumpus will grace the stage.  It will be all cheers and foot tappin’ during this fun event, as Bumpus and their powerful brand of soul music uplifts the good time energy of Sly & the Family Stone, the energy of James Brown and the reflective cool of Marvin Gaye.  This night will be one to take in!
Saturday night is  Michigan’s Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band Tribute Band, Live Bullet Detriot.  Thousands will be present as this band rocks out downtown Marquette.  As Live Bullet Detroit plays on you’ll get the full Bob Seger and The Silver Bullet Band experience. Come out an enjoy this rock cover band perform music from one of America’s most iconic signer-songwriters!
