Main Street Mania
What’s happening Friday

Deals at every shop
Each merchant runs their own Mania-night special. The full list posts here the week of the event.

Shop with your downtown merchants
Come buy from people who have stores in the heart of your community, who live in your community, and who know the products they sell. One night a year, downtown Presque Isle throws open its doors at once — and it’s this Friday.
Ready for the holidays
Lit windows, full shelves and friendly faces — a peek at what’s waiting on Main Street this week.

Who’s in
Listed in street order so you can plan your walk. Every shop is lining up a one-night special — we’ll post them all here the week of the event.
Getting here is the easy part
Where: Main Street, Downtown Presque Isle.
When: Friday, November 20, 4–10 PM. Stores open late; come after work and stay for the evening.
Parking: Free street parking on Main Street and in the downtown public lots. Park once and walk the block.
Make an evening of it: Dinner at Governor’s or a slice at Big Cheese first, shop the block, then a warm cup at Hub Coffee on the way back to the car.
