Rochester Real Beer Expo 2024 tickets are on sale now!

Rochester’s best beer festival returns on June 8, 2024

The perfect present for the beer nerd in your life is available now: tickets to the 2024 Rochester Real Beer Expo.

The 12th edition of the Expo is returning to Innovative Field, home of the Rochester Red Wings, on Saturday, June 8, 2024. And tickets are on sale now, just in time for the holidays.

You can grab tickets from the Red Wings website here.

Plus, great news, the ticket prices are the exact same as they were last year: $75 for VIP (very, very limited and comes with a special edition glass — I’ve already got a great idea for the glass) and $55 for general admission. (That doesn’t include the $1.50 charged by the Red Wings, fees that are much, much lower than Ticketmaster or Eventbrite.)

Last year’s event featured 72 craft beverage producers and I’m gonna bet we surpass that number in 2024. My goal is to again introduce this market to some of my favorite breweries from across the country and Canada. Let me know who you’d like to see participate in the next festival.

Keep an eye out for the local brewery vote that will launch next month and for participant announcements and profiles. We had 31 local businesses, including 26 regional breweries, last year and I’m hopeful we can match that total in 2024. Again, this event serves as the biggest fundraiser of the year for the Business Association of the South Wedge Area. I’m excited to work with those fine folks for the second year.

I’m determined to make this event even better than last year, our first at Innovative Field.
