Sample wines from Northwest Indiana, Southwest Michigan, and Chicagoland at Bulldog Park on Saturday, Sept 12, 2026, from 5 to 9 p.m.
Crown Point's annual Wine Fest pours onto Bulldog Park on Saturday, Sept 12, 2026, from 5 to 9 p.m. It brings together wineries from Northwest Indiana, Southwest Michigan, and Chicagoland for an evening of sampling, plus food from local restaurants and live music through the general-admission hours. VIP tickets add an earlier 5 p.m. entry, premium tastings, and a food ticket, with both tiers including a swag bag. Set it against the charm of the historic courthouse square and you have a relaxed late-summer date-night or friend-night out. Book tickets in advance, since the event tends to fill, and plan to wander the square's boutiques and patios before the pouring begins.
