Visitors to South Bend and Mishawaka may be pleasantly surprised by the abundance of things to do and sights to see in and around the area. South Bend has a rich history in manufacturing, and a number of museums can be found nearby such as the Studebaker Museum, History Museum, and Oliver Mansion. An abundant variety of restaurants can be found throughout the area, with plenty of options for those with dietary needs such as vegetarian and vegan.

Sign up in advance for the Pre-Fest Pub Crawl, an afternoon guided tour to eat, drink, and be merry, at some of the favorite restaurants and museums that were referred to us by our friends at Visit South Bend/Mishawaka. Learn more on the event page.
