New MyNorthTickets Events & Organizations
Leelanau Children's Choir

The Leelanau Children's Choir and Leelanau Youth Ensemble were founded in 1992 and are currently celebrating 19 years of vocal music excellence. Our mission statement, "Changing the Future One Voice at a Time," reflects our goal to train Northern Michigan children to sing beautifully according to the highest standards, to integrate musical literacy and performance practice, and to return the gift of song to our Northern Michigan community.

Fountain Point Inn & Club

Established in 1889, Fountain Point is a National Historic Site with 54 acres of manicured lawns and woodlands and nearly 1/2 mile of panoramic Northern Michigan shoreline on Lake Leelanau. In addition to serving as a home venue to many events, the location is also a Northern Michigan bed and breakfast hotel with antique furnishings and 19 comfortably refurbished, 1-7 bedroom cottages.

Leelanau Children's Center

The Leelanau Children's Center is a celebration of community spirit and admiration of young Northern Michigan children and their families. LCC was founded by a Mom who sought to provide a place where parents and their preschool-aged children could play together, learn from one another, and develop relationships. Leelanau Children's Center events follow that same mission, including Month of the Young Child Parade, Dia Del Niño Carnival, the Annual Leelanau Children's Center Golf Scramble and other fundraisers.

Beaver Island Boat Company

Beaver Island Boat Company has been providing the most relaxing, affordable transportation for people, pets, vehicles, and freight to Beaver Island for over 25 years. Enjoy a 2 hour boat ride across 32 miles of Lake Michigan on an open air deck or relax in a passenger cabin. Beaver Island offers pristine woods, isolated beaches, hiking and biking trails, and uncrowded campsites, as well as fine dining, hotels, motels, bed & breakfasts and cottage rentals. Those searching for a truly removed up-north destination will find it on Beaver Island.

Esperance

Pram & Suzanne have been running Esperance in Charlevoix for 13 years and have been in the hospitality industry since the 70s. Their dining and wine oriented events in Northern Michigan seek out great products and bring attendees the best possible ingredients to make a table shine.

Kirtland Center

Kirtland Center for the Performing Arts is home to the Performing Artist Series, Kirtland Youth Theatre, Kirtland Community Theatre, and Rising Phoenix Student Theatre Company and the Theatre Arts Department of Kirtland Community College.

Northwestern Michigan Fair

The Northwestern Michigan Fair has annually operated at its current location for thirty-three years on Blair Townhall Road, celebrating the agricultural heritage of Northern Michigan with all the fun you'd expect at a fair including 4H and animal displays, midway rides, the election of a Fair Queen, grand stand events like quad races and motocross and demonstrations of what's new and interesting. The sole purpose of the Northwestern Michigan Fair has not changed from what it was in 1908: The promotion of Michigan agriculture, horticulture, education, mechanical arts, fine arts, fruit and grain products, stock raising and dairy products, domestic science and kindred interests throughout the Grand Traverse Region.
