  • Yes, beer tastings from beer vendors are INCLUDED. Find your favorite!

  • We'd love to have you, and have non-beer options for you to drink. Due to venue capacity, each entry requires a ticket (including designated drivers).

  • Food is not included, but is available for purchase.

  • We LOVE kids, but this is a 21+ only event. Take this as an invitation to relax and take a few hours off from those little humans.

  • We pets too but, unfortunately, federal law prohibits animals inside the building, except qualified service animals.

  • Covid-19 guidance is regularly changing. We will be following any applicable city, state, and federal requirements that exist at the time of the event.

  • Group admission requires a minimum purchase of 4 tickets. So, you get a discount for going with your friends ! If you’re lucky enough to see early bird tickets still available, those will always be the best price, so grab those while you can!

  • You have a choice between Early Admission tickets and GA tickets.  Early Admission tickets get you in an extra hour earlier than GA (General Admission) tickets, and you get to continue to enjoy the event during the GA session.  YES, if you buy an Early Admission ticket, it includes the GA time too. That's the only difference between the two ticket choices per Session.

  • Attendees that show up with visible signs of intoxication will not be permitted entry.

  • Last call is 15 minutes prior to the end of each session time. You’ll be able to hang out and continue to enjoy the event until the end of your session time, but there will be no more service after last call.

  • You betcha!
