GR Bourbon Fest
The Inaugural Grand Rapids Bourbon Fest is on Friday, October 30th with two sessions offered. Session One from 4:30pm to 8pm and Session Two from 8pm to 11pm. GR Bourbon Fest is an indoor bourbon festival hosted in the loft space at Studio D2D Event Center (401 Hall St SW, Grand Rapids, MI 49503). This festival will feature 100+ whiskeys, 30+store picks & high-end bottle section. The majority of the list is bourbon but there will be a few non-bourbon options such as Rye whiskey, Tennessee whiskey and Japanese whiskey.. In addition to the great whiskey selection, we will have a food truck, live music, vendors and more!
What you get for Volunteering
Setup Crew & First Session Volunteers:
- GR Bourbon Fest Souvenir Festival Glass
- 10 Tasting Tickets (Tasting Tickets paid for by Freinds Of The River)
Second Session Volunteers:
- GR Bourbon Fest Souvenir Festival Glass
- 10 Tasting Tickets (Tasting Tickets paid for by Freinds Of The River)
- Ticket to Lansing Bourbon Fest or Detroit Bourbon Fest (Paid for by Freinds Of The River)
The Rules/Expectations:
- You must be 21
- You can sample while you pour but you must use a ticket
- You cannot drink behind the table
- It creates a real problem for us if you sign to volunteer and you cancel within 48 hours prior to festival or if you don't show up to volunteer for your shift. If you do either of those things you will not be eligible to volunteer at any of our other festivals in the future.
- We need volunteers that can go with the flow. We can't always pair you with who you want because there are always volunteers that don't show up and we have to shift volunteers around to fill the empty spots. We do the best we can to accommodate.
We appreciate all the hard work that volunteers provide and we couldn't put on the festival without you. All we ask is that you take your volunteer job as serious as we do in executing a great festival.
