Put-in-Bay Monarch Fest

We are so excited for the second annual Put-in-Bay Monarch Festival! This event is a family-friendly celebration of the beautiful pollinators. We will have Monarch tagging with nets available for families to help us catch butterflies. The event will feature games, food, and music, as well as hosting local vendors and educational presenters from organizations around the region. Monarch Fest will take place on Saturday September 13th at Duggan’s field next to the South Bass Lighthouse from 11 am - 2 pm, and the Lighthouse will be open for tours that day as well! $10 suggested donation for admission. There will be butterfly races for the kids (wings available!), butterfly face painting, a bounce house, and lots of other fun games and prizes!

Getting there:
From Miller Ferry:
When coming off the ferry, turn left and go to the end of the road (less than 1/4 mile so a very easy walk!). So close you don't even need a golf cart! We will have some golf cart shuttles available.

From Downtown:
Go south on Langram Rd. to the end of the road. You can take the downtown bus from the Put-in-Bay Tour Train depot to the Miller Ferry and walk from there (less than 1/4 mile). Or there are taxis ($4/person) and of course bike and golf cart rentals.

Parking:
There will be limited golf cart and car parking, we encourage walking (especially if you are walking off the Miller) or biking if you're able to!
