Spring
Spring into Superior
Go with the flow.
From rushing rivers to rollerskating. Birds and bees to brews. The big lake, big waterfalls and big concerts are calling.
Get outdoors
Witness the changes on Lake Superior and its bay with a shoreline stroll. And for a real rush, check out the rivers. This is the home to the mother of all Wisconsin waterfalls—and a few charming littler ones. Come for Manitou Falls at Pattison Park. Go down the road to view Amnicon Falls from a historic covered bridge. On your way back to Superior, visit the Davidson Windmill. Want more waterfalls? Consider crossing the bridge for a day trip up the North Shore.
Stay inside
Spend a rainy day rollerskating, thrifting or getting your geek on at stores dedicated to gaming, comics and collectables. Want to delight in dining out? Enjoy spring greens with girlfriends at one of these restaurants. Or spring for a pizza and bowling.
Make it an event
Come for a concert series that brings everyone out of the woodwork to rub shoulders and rock n roll. Or enjoy a calm night of jazz or orchestra. Catch a craft fair. See what’s brewing at a beer festival that’s for a good cause.
Gitchee Gummee Beer Fest
Featuring beer from over 30 different brewers and an all-you-can-eat taco bar, this annual celebration of brew from the Lake Superior region and beyond is a fundraiser for the Superior Jaycees, with all proceeds helping to support community organizations throughout the year. Toast to that.
Homegrown Music Festival
Love the music scene? This annual community celebration of the original and diverse music of Superior and Duluth will knock your socks off. Homegrown features nearly 200 local musical acts at over 30 venues, with a dedicated “Superior Night.” Plus, a children’s music showcase, poetry, visual art, film and fire spinning. Some 40 percent of the festival events are free and accessible to all ages.
