FAQs

  • Do I need to buy additional drink tickets to sample?
    No! All sample sizes for all vendors are included in your ticket cost. There is no need to buy additional drink tickets to enjoy the samples. Really love a drink? Full size cans are available for purchase at an additional cost at our concession booth.
  • How many food and drink samples will I receive with my ticket?
    With the purchase of a general admission ticket, each attendee will receive a sample from every beer, cider and food vendor. Each attendee can return for additional food servings until the vendors run out. Additional drinks are available for purchase onsite and online. VIP Ticket holders get all samples from the food and drink vendors plus will have additional food and beverages in the VIP tent.

    All tickets are non-refundable but are transferable.
  • Can I upgrade my General Admission ticket to a VIP ticket?
    We receive lots of requests to upgrade tickets once guests see the amazing VIP Lounge and all the perks it offers. Unfortunately, due to the ticketing platform, it is not possible to change ticket types once purchased. We encourage you to secure your VIP ticket early, as these exclusive spots are limited and consistently sell out each year!
