This year marks the 10th Annual Plaidurday Celebration, and Ironwood is going BIG. Last year, 950 plaid-loving people packed Aurora Street for the annual group photo. This year, the goal is to break 1,000 and make Plaidurday history!
There’s plenty happening throughout downtown:
Search downtown for unique plaid designs, complete the scavenger hunt and turn it in at the Stormy Kromer booth in City Square for a chance to win prizes.
Stop in for complimentary wine, tea and treats.
Free live music at the Downtown Art Park.
Head to Downtown City Square for local vendors plus Lola’s Lunchbox, Dublins Paddy Wagon and Moos Dough Co.
Free concert at the Downtown City Square Amphitheatre.
Throw on your favorite plaid shirt, hat—or full plaid outfit—and meet on Aurora Street in front of the Historic Ironwood Theatre marquee. Help Ironwood break the 1,000-person mark!
Keep the celebration going with a free concert at Superior Gales Wine & Spirits.
Plus, the Stormy Kromer x Porkies Tattoo “Tats for Caps” collaboration returns for the first time in 10 years. Get a Stormy Kromer cap tattoo and receive a free cap every five years—for life. Reservations are available through Porkies Tattoo.
Make a fall getaway out of it, explore Downtown Ironwood, enjoy the colors, shop local and be part of one of the U.P.’s most uniquely Ironwood traditions.
