MISHAWAKA, Ind. — Next weekend, Mishawaka’s Kamm Island will once again come to life as the annual Kamm island Festival returns.

This 21-and-over signature summer event will run from 5 to 9:30 p.m., Wednesday, July 22.

The festival will feature live music from the Sandbar Bums, the Caledonia Kilty Pipe Band and headliners Blammo!

While guests enjoy the music, they will have the opportunity to stroll around the island and check out the vintage car show, art fair and motorcycle show. Organizers say they also won’t want to miss the hometown tastes from Bonnie Doon Drive In, Lincolnway Café, Smith’s Downtown, The Upper Crust and others at the Taste of Mishawaka.

Tickets for Kamm Island Fest are $5 and can be purchased at the gate or in advance at the City of Mishawaka Clerk’s Office, or the MBA office.
