Beerfest is coming to Calgary and it’s got so much more than beer

There’s no such thing as the perfect weekend… 

Calgary Beerfest is coming to town! 

Mark your calendars and plan your Ubers, because it’s time to celebrate craft creations with food, brews, music, and more. Even if you’re not a big beer person, we promise there’s something for you at Beerfest!

There’s tons of beer, obviously, but you’re not limited. There will also be cocktails, cider, mead, and RTDs alongside delicious eats. Enjoy fun games, unwind at the sports lounge, or dance to DJ’s at the after-party featuring Felix Cartal, Glass Petals and White Light. 

If that sounds like just the thing for you, then here’s a taste (pun intended) of what to expect at Calgary Beerfest.

What To Expect

Get your souvenir sample cup and sample tokens and start your exploration into the world of craft bevvies.

Savour sips from over 150 breweries, distilleries & craft beverage makers. You read that right! You can try everything from beer to spirits, mead, cocktails, non-alcoholic beverages, and more!

You’ll also have your pick of assorted bites to pair along with your drinks from any of the over 45 participating restaurants. 

When the event ends, but you don’t feel like going home – you can keep the party going!

There will be after-parties on both Friday and Saturday hosted at the same venue. Enjoy live music and DJ headliners like Whitelight, Glass Petals, and Felix Cartal.

Whether you’re a beer aficionado, a food lover, a sports fan, or just looking for a fun weekend activity with friends, Calgary Beerfest has something for everyone! Explore, indulge, and connect with like-minded people.
