(La Porte, IN) - The last Friday Night Live event for the summer is set to give downtown La Porte a tropical atmosphere. 

 

The city will host its second-ever Cheeseburger in Paradise event at Lincolnway and Monroe St. on August 11th, from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. 

 

Similar to last year, local vendors will face off and compete for the title of ‘Best Cheeseburger.’

 

The evening will also feature a beer garden, artisan vendors, local food trucks and a live musical performance by Cabanarama, a Trop-Rock band covering everything from Jimmy Buffett and Bob Marley to the Zac Brown Band and Kenny Chesney.

 

City Events Coordinator Brett Binversie said this event will be the perfect ending to the summer’s lineup of downtown events.

 

“Our residents and visitors beat every last one of our expectations for Taco Fest and we anticipate the same excitement and turnout for this event. Between the delicious food and the beachy music, it will be the perfect way to say goodbye to a great summer,” he said.
