Craftoberfest, presented by Festival Foods, is back!  We had such an awesome party last year, we can’t wait for this year!  Craftoberfest is an unlimited beverage sampling event for anyone that loves craft beverages. We’ll have over 200 craft beers, plus lots of spirits, wines, ciders, Delta-9 and more!  We also have a ton of fun activities and great vendors, so stay tuned! 

After selling out last year, a limited number of the popular First Call tickets will be available for those who want to get one-hour early access at 2 p.m. to sampling. First Call tickets include a custom VIP sample glass lanyard. Limited pours from numerous breweries, special distilled spirits as well as specialty wines will be available for unique tasting experiences. First Call tickets are limited, so buy in advance.
