Welcome to the inaugural Venice Brew Fest, a celebration that marks the beginning of an annual tradition right here in the heart of Florida. We are committed to spotlighting the rich tapestry of local brewing talent, and have curated an experience that is not just a festival, but a highlight of the unique flavors and innovative spirit of the Gulf Coast’s craft beer community.
We’ve observed how larger festivals tend to overlook the smaller, yet incredibly talented brewers who are the backbone of our region’s brewing scene. Determined to change the narrative, Venice Brew Fest aims to provide a platform where the artistry, dedication, and love imbued in every barrel by our local brewing family can shine brightly for all to appreciate.
At the Venice Brew Fest, we’re not just sampling beer; we’re immersing ourselves in an experience of local music, sun, sand and Florida salty air. All creating the culture and community that makes Florida’s Gulf Coast so unique.
From seasoned aficionados to casual enthusiasts, the Venice Brew Fest offers something for everyone, with a wide array of styles and flavors to explore. Each brewery represented at our festival has been invited because of its commitment to quality and creativity.
We’ll have local food truck and eatery tents, 15+ taps, special tastings form select brewers and 3 unique blocks of live music.
Here’s to making the first Venice Brew Fest a memorable beginning to a cherished annual tradition. Cheers!
