KALAMAZOO, MI — There’s a new way to enjoy Kalamazoo Craft Beverage Week where revelers can order to-go drinks and consume while walking outside in “social districts.”

Launched in the summer of 2020 by Kalamazoo Downtown Partnerships, participating bars, restaurants, breweries, wineries and distilleries can provide to-go drinks in specially-marked cups as part of the Central Commons Refreshments Area.

People can then drink them as they window shop or conduct their own bar crawl of downtown Kalamazoo.

The social district was expanded at the end of 2020 to include more participants and a wider geographic footprint.
