I was at the Eagles Friday as well as Saturday. The bands were great, great bartenders (Erin was the best). Okay Mexican food, water available for non alcoholic drinks. The Coast Guard festival was great! There was also fireworks!

We always have a great time at Coast Guard festival! We actually incorporated the ship tours into our 12 year anniversary celebration! The volunteers from Coast Guard were wonderful on the tours! The volunteer for the virtual reality marine event was very personable and professional! We absorbed a lot of information about the preparation of and travel to grand Haven for the ships! Thank you all for your service!πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΈπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΈπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΈπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΈπŸ’žπŸ’β€οΈπŸ’™πŸ’œ

The BEST weekend in Michigan! Of course it's crowded.....that's what makes it fun. I love the display of patriotism, the amazing firework display on Saturday night, the carnival, the ships to explore, the art fair.....NOTHING about it I would say I didn't like! Check it out for yourself, and NO...I do not live in the area or have a vested interest in the success of this Festival; just have gone to it for many years and wouldn't miss it!

I have been attending the Coast Guard festival every year since before I could even walk, and every year I mark it on the calendar so I don't miss it. If you can make it for multiple days, you'll have no lack of fun things to do, but if you can make it for only one, don't miss the final Saturday every year. The parade is best in state of Michigan every year, the ship tours are awesome, the carnival is huge and a ton of fun, the shows are almost always worthy of attendance, and the fireworks extravaganza, lit off during a presentation by the world famous musical fountain, is the best fireworks display of each and every year, always besting any July 4th display I have ever attended. I can't recommend the festival highly enough, and will no doubt see you there!
