Mallow Run Winery's Picnic Concert Series and special releases are back for 2024

The season for sipping wine, nibbling tasty snacks and listening to live music outdoors is upon us. Mallow Run Winery will combine all of these elements with the return of its annual Picnic Concert Series.

From May 25 through Sept. 21, the winery has programmed a number of free and ticketed shows on its grassy expanse at 6964 W. Whiteland Road in Bargersville. Food trucks and Mallow Run's signature wines and seasonal releases — like blueberry cider — will be mainstays throughout the spring and summer.

Here's the live music schedule. Some concerts require tickets, which can be purchased at mallowrun.com/picnic-concert-series. Ages 12 and under are free.
