Like most traditional brewery tasting festivals, we love making these events as accessible to the public to support our fellow food trucks and booths. So this event is split into two main areas:

1) FOOD HALL & NIGHT MARKET which allows for "All Ages" access to the food trucks and shopping area on the main floor inside the Magnuson Park Hangar 30. The Winter Beer Festival the beer tasting experience is held (21+ only) and requries an entry fee of $5 or $25.00. So if you love food trucks and don't want the beer, then you can enjoy yourself at no cost.

2) BEER TASTING HALL & MUSIC STAGE - If you love beer (you get 32 ounces of beer) and want to enjoy a selection of craft beverages with some music, then you will need to purchase a $25 ticket online to be allowed in. Love a full pour? Any beverage on taps is availabel for a full pour option for only 3 beer tokens or $8 pour so taste your way through or stick with one all day long.

Tickets will be available online throughout the festiova at the same price, but they will be higher at the door. So buy early and skip the long lines in the chilly weather.

We will have a smaller selection of food trucks inside the gated beer garden for the sake of convenience to reduce the need to walk out of the 21+ area, so you can enjoy your beverage and food at the same time.
