Description
The 4th Annual Blackburn Brew Fest is trading the daytime heat for a cool summer night! Forget the sunglasses and grab your crew because, for the first time ever, Cape Ann's premier craft beverage celebration is shifting to a single, exclusive evening session. Join us under the stars as we sip, snack, and dance the night away right on the waterfront.
- The Ultimate Summer Night: Picture a warm July evening, a glowing sunset over the North Shore, and a cold brew in your hand.
- Over 20 Craft Breweries: Sample an incredible variety of craft beers, ciders, hard seltzers, and meads from the best local and regional creators.
- Live Music Under the Stars: Dance along to awesome live sets from Cape Ann singer-songwriter Matt Rich and local favorites Cruise Control.
- Food Truck Feast: Fuel your evening with local favorites like Riverview Pizza, The Lobster Roller, and Meat and Sweet Foods.
- Drink for a Cause: Have fun while giving back—a portion of the ticket proceeds directly benefits local non-profits through the Cape Ann Community Foundation.
- Advance General Admission: $45 (Includes all beverage samplings and access to food vendors)
- Day-of Tickets: $50 (If available—tickets are limited!)
- Designated Driver: $10 (Includes admission and access to non-alcoholic offerings)
For breweries interested in participating, please contact Sam Bevins at sam@capeannchamber.com.
The event will also be supporting a good cause as a portion of the proceeds will support local non-profits through the Cape Ann Community Foundation, an organization established by the Chamber to award grants for projects supporting educational, social service, recreational and economic initiatives throughout the Cape Ann Community.
