The Firestone Walker Invitational Beer Fest lands on June 3, 2023 with a curated all-star cast of more than 55 breweries from around the world.
Tickets go on sale at Eventbrite starting at 10 a.m. PST on Friday, February 17. Historically, the event has sold out within minutes, so prospective guests are advised to mark their calendars. Tickets are $125 for general admission, and $250 for early admission. Event proceeds benefit Pioneer Day, a beloved Paso Robles community organization dedicated to local events and historic preservation.
“The Firestone Walker Invitational Beer Fest was born from a dream of creating a world-class festival featuring some of the best brewers in the world,” said Brewmaster Matt Brynildson. “This is a day when we can set the sales pitches aside and simply share our beers and stories with passionate craft drinkers.”
Since its inaugural event in 2012, the Firestone Walker Invitational Beer Fest has become renowned as one of the world’s most esteemed beer festivals. This year’s edition will once again showcase an international cast of leading craft breweries, as well as live music and food from more than 25 local restaurants and purveyors. The brewery, restaurant and music lineup will be announced at a later date. Stay tuned at the fest web page.
