If you count cherry spitting, toilet seat and bike flinging, and stumpf fiddling among your hobbies, Fish Creek is the place to be this weekend. Fish Creek Winterfest is one of the first Door County festivals of 2026, with activities taking place across the area but primarily along the shores of the bay at Clark Park.
Running from Friday through Sunday, Fish Creek Winterfest is known for its quirky games, though a noon ice rescue demonstration, a 3 p.m. concert by Bacchus Lotus and 6 p.m. fireworks are among the other highlights. A Friday night glow shoot at the Peninsula Gun Club and a Sunday morning fun run bookend the Fish Creek Winterfest activities.
The event not only awakens the area from its midwinter slumber, Fish Creek Winterfest also raises thousands of dollars for local schools and nonprofits. You can find the full schedule of events below.
