Local Roots Blues, Brews & Evening Dining BBQ
August 8, 2013 (6:30pm-9pm, Dinner 7pm) in Greenfield Village Pavilion

Barbeque, Michigan beers and live blues bands

BBQ. Barbecue. Barbeque. No matter how you spell it, this is an extraordinary backyard-style event in the heart of Greenfield Village. The food — all of it locally sourced — is the focus, but you can also enjoy a refreshing Michigan beer, all the while listening or dancing to the great sounds of the Front Street Blues Band.

The Greenfield Village Pavilion is open for your arrival beginning at 6:30pm. Dinner service will start promptly at 7pm. Guests will be given 2 drink tickets to use at the bar. Full cash bar available. Summer dining tickets are nonrefundable and nontransferable.
