Ludington... Sunday was EPIC and last night was SINFUL!
Tonight we welcome back our good friend Dave from Q Smokehouse for our world-famous $2 Build Your Own Rockin' Street Taco Tuesday!
And we're just getting started!
Take a look at this week's calendar... we've got a little something for everyone!
Great food, live music, old friends, new faces, and plenty of reasons to get together!
LET'S GO, LUDINGTON!
SEVEN DAYS. SEVEN REASONS. ONE LEGENDARY SANDBAR!
THIS WEEK AT THE SAND BAR | OCTOBER 11–17
Ludington... buckle up!
We've got one incredible week lined up. Football, food, trivia, karaoke, live music, old friends, new faces, and some very special collaborations with our favorite local businesses.
Seven days. Seven different reasons to get together. And every one of them worth showing up for!
SUNDAY — LIONS FOOTBALL & THE SS BADGER'S LAST RUN!
We're kicking things off TODAY with our Detroit Lions taking on the Arizona Cardinals, plus a celebration of our beloved SS Badger's final run of the season!
Football, community, and a little Ludington maritime history. What a way to start the week!
MONDAY — THE SAND BAR SIN (SERVICE INDUSTRY NIGHT)
Our Monday night tradition keeps growing, and we're loving every minute of it!
25% OFF food, drinks, and Sand Bar swag for our hardworking service industry friends.
A chance to unwind, reconnect, and maybe experience something completely unexpected. You never know who might show up on our iconic stage!
TUESDAY — ROCKIN' TACOTOPIA RETURNS WITH DAVE FROM Q SMOKEHOUSE!
THIS IS A BIG ONE!
After several months, our friend DAVE from Q Smokehouse is BACK collaborating with us for our world-famous $2 Build Your Own Street Taco Tuesday!
Smoky goodness, fresh toppings, incredible flavors, and absolutely NO TACO POLICE!
We've missed this collaboration, and we know many of you have too. Come hungry because these tacos don't last forever!
WEDNESDAY — OUR FAMOUS DOUBLE DIP!
DJ Trivia | 7–8:30PM
Get your team together, bring your A-game, and see if you've got what it takes!
Open Mic with Chocolate Thunder | 9PM–Close
Then we hand things over to our own Chocolate Thunder for another night of musical surprises, local talent, and spontaneous collaborations.
Two completely different experiences. One incredible Wednesday!
THURSDAY — THIRSTY WING THURSDAY + JUKEBOX KARAOKE!
Our award-winning jumbo wings in collaboration with our friends at Ludington Meat Company are becoming legendary in their own right!
Big wings. Your favorite sauces. Cold drinks.
And when the mood strikes? Grab the mic for Jukebox Karaoke!
Simple. Fun. Delicious. And always a good time.
FRIDAY — PIZZA, ROCK & ROLL AND THE WH***EY RIVER RATS!
We're turning Friday into a full-blown Sand Bar experience!
5–8PM — Rizzo's Award-Winning Pizza Pop-Up in the alley!
ECHO SIX SEVEN kicks off the live music, warming up our iconic stage for...
WH***EY RIVER RATS!
One of Ludington's favorite bands returns for a night of great music, familiar faces, and the kind of rock & roll energy that keeps bringing us all together.
Come for the pizza. Stay for the music. Bring your friends!
SATURDAY — SMOKE & ELECTRICITY!
THE GRAND FINALE!
We're bringing together two things that were made for each other...
6PM — Smokin-Smitty's Bar-B-Que rolls into our newly improved alley, serving up some serious BBQ goodness!
9PM — ELECTRIC RED TAKES OVER OUR ICONIC STAGE!
You know them. You love them. And you know what happens when Electric Red plugs in at The Sand Bar!
The energy. The music. The dancing. The people.
SMOKE & ELECTRICITY — ONE INCREDIBLE SATURDAY NIGHT!
THIS IS WHY WE DO WHAT WE DO.
Seven days of bringing people together. Supporting local businesses. Celebrating musicians. Making new friends and reconnecting with old ones.
We've always believed that a great neighborhood bar is about so much more than what's in your glass.
It's about the people, the music, the laughter, and the memories we make together.
NO COVER EVER.
Ludington... which nights are we seeing YOU?
THE VIBE IS HERE.
YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD HUB.
WHERE MUSIC LIVES.
