Three things to do in & around La Crosse this weekend
Definitely liking the improved temps this week/weekend & beyond! Not sure what your New Year’s plans are, but I’ll probably be in bed by 9pm.
Every year for Christmas, my mom buys me a gift card for live seafood from the Lobster Guy. So, my wife & I usually order some lobsters, scallops, along with a few other things and have a nice, romantic dinner before we enter a food coma and drift off to sleep well in advance of midnight.
But, if you’re looking to get out and do some stuff this weekend, here’s a few suggestions:
FRIDAY – CUSTOMER APPRECIATION PARTY & MUG CLUB SIGN-UP @ THE PEARL ST. BREWERY
Stop by the PSB on Friday afternoon/evening & grab a tasty beverage, enjoy some free food(while it lasts), check out some live music from my buddy, Tom Conrad, and sign up to win FREE BEER FOR A YEAR!
Hell yeah! You can also enjoy a special Firkin tapping during the event, and you can become a member of the Pearl St. Brewery‘s Mug Club. It’s only $100 for a year-long membership & includes a personalized mug, monthly mug club nights, discounts on growlers & merch, and the occasional free beer.
Find out more about the PSB Mug Club here!
The event starts at 5pm, but get to the Pearl St. early to grab a seat at the bar or to play some shuffleboard! Find all the info here.

SATURDAY – 6PM NEW YEAR’S EVE FIREWORKS SHOW FROM GRANDAD’S BLUFF WITH THE LA CROSSE SKYROCKERS
Look, I’m 46 years old & I get up at 2am during the week to go to work. Staying up until midnight just isn’t a “thing” for me anymore. If I’m up at midnight, there’s usually a problem.
And if you’re like me and you go to bed before the witching hour, you can still enjoy some incredible fireworks on New Year’s Eve thanks to the La Crosse Skyrockers! They’ll once again be shooting off some amazing fireworks at 6pm from Grandad’s Bluff on NYE, so grab a beverage, head outside, and tilt your head towards Bliss Rd. for a fireworks spectacular!
Find more info here.
SATURDAY NIGHT – YOUR MOM BAND @ WHISKEY RIVER BAR & GRILL @ 9PM
Live tunes. Beers. Food. Champagne. Party favors.
What more do you need?
Get your ass to Whiskey River Bar & Grill in West Salem on Saturday night for some live music from the “Your Mom” band, starting at 9pm. They play all your favorite, high-energy cover songs to keep your ass moving all night long!
There’s also a balloon drop at midnight, so get those phones ready to post on the ‘Gram! More info here.
SUNDAY – PACKER/VIKING GAME @ CHAMPIONS RIVERSIDE RESORT
Hungover on #SundayFunday from too much bubbly the night before?
Grab a bloody at Champions & watch the border battle between the Packers & the Vikings. Get to Champions early for the noon games, grab some food, and register to win their famous drinking chair – which has been autographed by multiple Packer players this past season!
Plenty of great food on the menu and lots of TVs to catch all the action!
Always seating available, but if you’d like to reserve a spot ahead of time for your crew, give them a call at (608) 582-2995!
