Tavern in the Garden

09/10/2026

💔 A tough call, but the right one.

After watching the forecast closely, we’ve made the difficult decision to cancel Tavern in the Garden tonight.

There’s a LOT that happens behind the scenes to make Thursday night happen—from setting up tables and chairs, bartenders and food trucks, to our band traveling in from Louisville. We needed to make the call early enough to respect everyone’s time and effort.

We’re so sorry to miss you tonight, but we’ll be back soon! ❤️

Thank you for understanding and for always showing up for Tavern. We love you for it! 🍻🌿

🌧️ WE’RE WATCHING YOU, RAIN. 👀

Looks like Mother Nature may have plans for us tomorrow… and we’re keeping a close eye on her. 😂

But for NOW… we’re focused on what really matters:

🎸 RUNAWAY SOULS is making their way to the Tavern stage! 🔥

Bluesy. Rock ’n’ roll. A little attitude. And exactly the kind of Thursday night we’ve been waiting for.

We’re watching the skies, but we’re READY TO ROCK. 🤘

So keep your eye on our page for weather updates — and if the rain behaves itself, we’ll see you TOMORROW NIGHT at the Tavern!

Expect the best, people. 🍻🎶

🎸 THURSDAY NIGHT JUST GOT A WHOLE LOT LOUDER. 🍻🌿

Tavern in the Garden is back THIS THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 10, and we’re welcoming a brand-new sound to the Tavern stage…

🔥 RUNAWAY SOULS 🔥
Bluesy. Gritty. Rock ’n’ roll.
The kind of music that makes you want to grab a cold drink, find a spot in the garden, and stay awhile.

And because great music needs great food…

🍴 Juanito’s will be rolling in with the eats!

📍 Brown-Pusey House
🗓️ Thursday, September 10
⏰ 6–9 PM

New band. New week. Same Tavern magic.
Come hungry. Come thirsty. Come hang out with us. 🍻🎶

We have been working especially hard to get our garden lit up for you for the month of September… You know that sun has been going to bed earlier and earlier! We want to give a big shoutout to Village Green Landscape and Nursery for all their hard work in this heat to make special things like this happen!

For those who are wondering… Tavern in the Garden is still on for tonight! Use your best judgment. If you can’t make it we definitely understand but if you can we promise you a wonderfully special night with the best people around!

Speaking of best… Thank you to our sponsors that made all this happen!

🔥 TAVERN IN THE GARDEN: HOT MESS SUMMER 🔥

Okay, Etown… it’s been HOT. 🥵

But somehow, week after week, you have kept showing up. The crowds. The music. The frozen drinks. The dancing. The laughs. The absolutely questionable decisions. 😂

And we are NOT mad about it.

Summer may be winding down, but we’ve still got 5 MORE WEEKS of Tavern in the Garden—and we plan to make every single one count.

This week, we’re embracing the obvious:

🔥 HOT MESS SUMMER 🔥

Come as your own version of a hot mess.
Or just show up and let the night take care of the rest. 😉

🎶 LIVE MUSIC: Last Call
🍔 FOOD TRUCK: Rick’s Grill on Wheels

Thank you, Sponsors!
We couldn’t do it without you!

The drinks will be cold.
The music will be loud.
The garden will be packed.
And summer isn’t over quite yet.

5 weeks left. Let’s make them count.

🔥 TAVERN IN THE GARDEN
Where summer comes to play.
