Based on recommendations from Duluth’s Alcohol Review Board and downtown merchants the City Council adopted an amendment to the alcohol ordinance May 9 to provide for a “Downtown Entertainment District.” The designated area will allow the public to enjoy alcoholic beverages in plastic cups outside establishments.

Restrictions prohibit the possession or consumption of alcohol in the playground at Taylor Park or the Duluth Cemetery. In addition, the public is not allowed to possess and consume alcoholic beverages in the designated area unless the beverages are purchased from a licensed establishment located within the city’s Central Business District.
