For lovers of craft beer, live music, and the camaraderie of a good beer fest, make plans to be at Pints Elmhurst on Saturday, June 15 for a special Elmhurst Craft Beer Fest ticket pre-sale event.
The Elmhurst Heritage Foundation will host the 5th Annual Elmhurst Craft Beer Fest on Saturday, Sept. 14 on the grounds of the Elmhurst History Museum. Funds generated from the event benefit educational programs and exhibits at the Elmhurst History Museum and Churchville Schoolhouse.
To kick off ticket sales, beer lovers can save $5 per ticket by attending a Father’s Day Pre-Sale Party at Pints—the event sponsor—located at 112 S. York St. in downtown Elmhurst on Saturday, June 15 from 7 to 9 p.m. The first 20 ticket buyers at the Pints party will receive a free pint of Wild Onion Crazy Fingers. Everyone 21+ is welcome, and don’t forget dad! Elmhurst Craft Beer Fest tickets make a great Father’s Day gift.
The 2019 Beer Fest will feature more than 100 special beers/ciders from more than 50 craft brewers from the Chicago area and around the country. Live music will be provided by The Moonshine Brothers and Petty Cash who will rock the fest throughout the day. A People’s Choice Best Brewer Contest will be held with the winner announced at the fest. The Elmhurst Brewing Company will offer a special 5th anniversary craft beer to taste. Early entry is from 12 to 1 p.m. and general admission is 1 to 6 p.m. A specially priced designated driver ticket will also be available. This event is for adults 21 and over. Online ticket sales start June 16 at www.elmhurstcraftbeerfest.com.
Also, Early Bird pricing on fest tickets will be available online (www.elmhurstcraftbeerfest.com) through September 7 with a discounted ticket price offered for Elmhurst Heritage Foundation members. Discounts will not be available on the day of Beer Fest.
