Bayfest Retires After 31 Celebrated Years!

After 31 years of entertaining the Green Bay area, Bayfest is retiring. After a thorough analysis of the music event landscape, Arts Events. Inc., has has made the difficult decision not to move forward with the production of the 2012 edition of Bayfest Live. The greater Green Bay area is home to a thriving music concert and event scene, which we will continue to support as an arts organization and we have concluded that we will reallocate our resources to growing and enriching Savour Green Bay and developing other new initiatives.

As one of the premier festivals in the region, Bayfest has influenced the creation of numerous festivals and events over the past three decades, including the emergence of a diverse selection of weekly seasonal concert series throughout the area. In 2011 Savour Green Bay evolved from Bayfest as a culinary arts event focusing on the area's vast array of culinary treasures. Savour brings together local food and lifestyle featuring restaurants, wineries and breweries complemented by cooking demonstrations, a marketplace, and food-focused activities for the entire family.
