Introducing Sound Bites at Chateau Grand Traverse
Live Music. Local Flavor. Unbeatable Views.

This summer, Chateau Grand Traverse is turning up the volume with Sound Bites — a new music and culinary series celebrating the best of Northern Michigan. Every Thursday and Saturday from 5:00–8:00 PM, guests are invited to relax on our expansive outdoor patio in the heart of Old Mission Peninsula wine country, where live music, elevated small bites, and signature wine country hospitality set the tone for unforgettable summer evenings.

Sound Bites features a vibrant lineup of musical talent from across the Midwest, including live bands, acoustic performers, and DJs curating laid-back sets to match the mood. With genres spanning jazz, soul, indie, folk, pop, and acoustic rock, the series captures the creative spirit of the region’s dynamic music scene. With both new and returning acts, each evening offers a fresh-yet-familiar vibe that invites guests to stay awhile. Whether you're a local regular or visiting for the first time, there's always something to discover — and plenty to enjoy.

Beyond the music, guests can savor a rotating menu of seasonal small bites thoughtfully crafted to pair with our award-winning wines, all served with the warm, personal service Chateau Grand Traverse is known for. With panoramic vineyard views and a laid-back, community-focused atmosphere, Sound Bites is your perfect excuse to slow down, sip up, and take in the magic of Northern Michigan’s summer nights.

No reservations required — just come as you are, find your seat, and let the good times pour.
