Festival Info

About the Harbor Brew Fest
The Harbor Light Foundation has planned an unforgettable beer festival for all of our attendees. Please join us Saturday, September 28, 2013 from 12pm – 5pm in the ball park at Harbor Yard for the second annual Harbor Brew Fest. The event will tap off with a limited attendance Brewers Special from 12pm – 1pm. General Admission will begin at 1pm and we will pour until 5pm. General Admission ($40 per ticket) will get you an unforgettable day of beer tasting, a beer tasting glass, great music from talented local bands, delicious food from CT’s favorite food trucks and a fun-filled day to enjoy with friends. Brewer’s Special ($60 per ticket) includes all of the above plus samples of reserve & specialty brews from participating breweries an hour before general admission. Brewer’s Special will also grant exclusive access to the Brewer’s Beer Garden where starting at 1 PM a different keg of beer will be tapped each hour on the hour through 5 PM. A portion of the proceeds from the event will benefit the Harbor Light Foundation.

The Rules
No one under 21 will be permitted inside the stadium. Event staff will check everyone’s IDs before walking through the front gate. Unfortunately no four-legged animals will be permitted. No outside beer tasting mugs; no worries, ours are super cool and with each ticket purchase you receive a free tasting glass!

Drink Responsibly and Stay Safe
With an emphasis on beer appreciation, Harbor Brew Fest is a place to discover and taste a variety of different beers. We do not promote over-consumption so pace yourself. Anyone found to be intoxicated will be removed from the premises.

Before you arrive at the festival, arrange for a safe ride home! Discounted Designated Driver tickets ($10 per ticket) are available for anyone who wants to “take one for the team” and attend without sampling the beers. Can’t find a designated driver? The Metro North train station is a 5 minute stroll away. Additionally, there will be taxicabs available outside of the stadium throughout the day.
