Grab a beer, dance like crazy, shop til ya drop and get your brunch on at these holiday events at The Little Fleet.

(Find a complete list of holiday happenings from Traverse City to Harbor Springs here.)


December 13: Boots for Beers in partnership with Goodwill Northern Michigan
Drop off a pair of new or lightly used boots, any size, and receive a pint of beer. The Little Fleet, Rare Bird and The Filling Station have partnered with Goodwill Northern Michigan for this great cause, and all three locations will be accepting donations. There is a fun element of competition between the three locations, as whoever collects the most boots will take home the Golden Boot Trophy, so choose your location carefully!

December 17: Holiday Market
The market will feature products from local artisan vendors so you can get the last of your holiday shopping done in one place. Plus there will be three styles of mulled wine available for tastings, and the DJ is spinning vinyl (this is our new favorite way to shop)! Free admission.

December 18: Breakfast Brunch Buffet and The Ragbirds Holiday Concert
Brunch taco bar. We’ll say that one more time. Brunch. Taco. Bar. Bring the family out for a crazy good meal provided by Roaming Harvest, and eat outside under a huge heated tent. There will also be a cash bar offer by The Little Fleet with Bloody Marys and mimosas. The Ragbirds annual Holiday Concert will begin at 12:30 p.m. BuyNowButton

December 22: Kids Dance Party
FIRST EVER KID’S DANCE PARTY at The Little Fleet to help kick off your holiday break! The event is focused on those 12 and under, but all ages are welcome. This dance party will feature all the favorites so don’t be afraid to get up and dance along. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to Child and Family Services of Northwestern Michigan.
