LaPorte, IN) – Lake Fest 2020 in La Porte will be taking shape in the coming weeks and months.

 Jack Arnett, executive director of the La Porte County Convention & Visitors Bureau, said people involved in jet-ski racing from England will be coming here next month to try and strike a deal for making LaPorte part of their racing circuit.

The same people are the ones who brought jet-ski racing for the first time to the powerboat races at Michigan City’s lakefront in 2019.

Arnett said a Taste of LaPorte is among the other possible happenings in the discussion stage for Lake Fest 2020.

Currently, Arnett says a location for Lake Fest 2020 has not been decided but it will either be at Pine Lake, Stone Lake or Clear Lake.

He said the goal right now is to have Lake Fest 2020 on the first full weekend in August.
