Door County, Wis. (March 2, 2023) – The time is almost here! Tickets for the 2023 Door County Lighthouse Festivals go on sale to DCMM members only on Friday, March 17! Many of the tour excursions provide exclusive access to lighthouses not typically open to the public, including Chambers Island, Kewaunee Pierhead Lighthouse, Sherwood Point and the Plum Island Range Lights.
These fundraising Festival weekends include air, land-based, boat, and adventure tours that provide access to all 11 of the treasured lighthouses of Door County and three of our neighbors to the south. Several of the tours sell out each year. The best way to guarantee your tickets is to become a DCMM member and get advance ticket sales. Tickets go on sale to the general public March 31.
