LANSING, Mich. — Coming to Lansing in July is a festival that is bringing fun takes on bacon and beer to the state capital.

Outlier Events is planning to bring Michigan's Bacon Fest to Lansing by partnering with Lansing Lugnuts and Footprints of Michigan.

No stranger to hosting across the Midwest, Outlier Events has put on popular festivals like Donut and Beer Fest and Taco Fest. Meaning, like its counterparts, attendees can get anything from bacon donuts, to bacon mac and cheese, to bacon burgers, to bacon beer from food trucks and local vendors. Besides, the Bacon Fest "is a celebration of all things bacon, beer and fun."

The date is set for Saturday, July 30th from 4-8 p.m. with VIP entry available at 3 p.m. at Jackson Field.

Live music, and a variety of beers/ciders/seltzers from local, regional and national vendors will be included in ticket costs. Lanyards and souvenir cups come with the ticket.
