The 11th Annual Philly Craft Beer Festival is Returning on Saturday, March 4

by Drink Philly on Feb 28, 2017 in Event Listing

The Philly Craft Beer Festival, which was once named one of the Top 10 Beer Festival in America by Forbes Traveler, is returning for its 11th year on Saturday, March 4 from 1:30 - 5 PM (for the general admission session) at the Navy Yard.

75 different craft breweries will be in attendance and will offer over 200 beers for thirsty guests to sample alongside some of Philly’s best food trucks to keep everyone full and happy, and full lists of both the breweries and the food trucks are available so you can strategize what you’d like to try before you go.

A general admission ticket includes a souvenir tasting cup, access to every beer at the festival, and either free on-site parking or shuttle bus access to and from the Navy Yard and the Broad & Pattison Septa stop. However, if you want an even bigger experience, spring for a VIP ticket and get a glass Belgian taster and an additional hour at 12:30 where VIP guests can talk directly to brewers and taste special, VIP session beers.
 
As always, the festival will raise both awareness and funds for the Philadelphia Committee to Benefit the Children, or the CBC, and guests can attend a silent auction fundraiser to help benefit the charity.
 
Get your tickets today, since the event is sure to sell out soon (as it has every year so far). General admission will cost you $46, and VIP tickets will cost you $75, so pick them up now and head to the festival for a great afternoon full of all the craft beer you could possibly imagine.
