Join us in the Tavern!

During The Sugar Hole season, we host a variety of afternoon programming. Expect live music, markets, drag, film, and more! See the 2026 lineup below.

Each event is FREE and open to the public. Performer tips are encouraged! Grab a cone and come inside to see what’s happening. Full bar and snacks also available.

At 5 PM, the Tavern transitions to our evening, ticketed programming.
