Brewery Booth
Join your peers in the craft beer with a festival brewery booth. Get your brands in front of more than 50,000 adoring fans over the course of four sessions. New for 2023: You will have the opportunity to serve up to five beers via draught or packaged product from your space, and the opportunity to serve one additional packaged “beyond beer” product (Seltzer, Cider, Hard Kombucha). Only beer may be served via draught at brewery booths. Breweries wishing to serve more than one “beyond beer” product can substitute those products (packaged only) for up to five of the six potential beverages allowed to be served from your space. You must serve at least one beer at your brewery booth.
We make the process as easy as possible by providing access to the MicroStar keg program for no-cost access to kegs for festival beers. We also work to alleviate shipping costs for your festival beers by providing over 25 different festival beer drop-off points that will consolidate your beer shipments and send them to the festival on your behalf.
- BA Member Cost: $250
