A Word From Jonathan Drew

We’re proud to have the support of one of the most recognizable cigar brands on the planet in Drew Estate. Founder Jonathan Drew has offered his full support of our event and will even be present next July! The Great Lakes Cigar Festival, much like Jonathan Drew all those years ago, is chasing a revival in the cigar industry. As our festival grows we aim to make the GLCF the largest and fastest growing cigar fest anywhere in America. From the live entertainment & experiential activations, to the amazing deals on cigars & spirits, you’ll have everything you need for a once in lifetime (well maybe yearly ) cigar experience with us at M-1 Concourse.

About The Event

The Great Lakes Cigar Festival is the pinnacle experience for cigar lovers of all backgrounds. Whether you’re an aficionado, or brand new to the cigar world we have something for you. You’ll get to experience cigars up close and personal with some of the top cigar makers in the world. You’ll be able to shop the best deals anywhere, and even interact with cigar legends, CEO’s and brand enthusiasts. Add to this, virtual experiences, cigar rolling activations, live entertainment, and signing events throughout the day and you have one of the most eclectic events this year in metro Detroit. We haven’t even mentioned the dozens of bourbon/spirits vendors, and lifestyle brands that will also be in attendance amongst an iconic cigar lineup. Not to mention, a plethora of free cigars included with your event ticket!.

An Authentically Detroit Venue

Nothing screams the “Great Lakes Region” more than the iconic city of Detroit and its history deeply rooted in the automotive industry.
M-1 Concourse is home to not only car enthusiasts and their private garages, but some of the largest racing events in the U.S.A. every year. With guests that have included Jay Leno, Tim Allen, Jimmy Fallon, Frankie Muniz, and more it’s no wonder M-1 is at the heart of automotive entertainment in Michigan.
With ample space both indoors and out to create our lively festival based cigar environment, M-1 provided the perfect backdrop for everything needed to create a cigar experience that is rivaled by none.
