MARQUETTE, Mich. (WLUC) – The Hiawatha Traditional Music Festival is coming to Marquette this weekend.
Crews are hard at work setting up Tourist Park for the festival, which aims to bring traditional American music to both seasoned fans and new admirers. Tony Trischka, WhoDat Brass, and even the Scottish band Breabach are some of the performers you can expect to hear at Hiawatha.
Volunteers say there’ll be something at the festival for every member of your family.
“If you just want to sit and watch music, you can do it at our main stage or you can do it at one of our workshop tents,” said Hiawatha Music Co-Op Board Member and Set Up Monitor Dick Pierson. “If you want to participate in dancing, [there is a tent for that]. If you want to let your kids do some crafts and make an instrument or do different things, it’ll be over in the children’s tent.”
You can check out the festival at Tourist Park from 7 p.m. on Friday until Sunday night. You can get tickets at the gate.
The video above will feature the TV6 livestream until staff can clip the corresponding story, if available, from broadcasts or other TV6 content. You can subscribe to our YouTube page or download TV6+ to stream the latest local news and weather.
