The Great American Beer Festival (GABF), a celebration of artistry, innovation, and craft brewing, returns to Denver from October 10th to 12th. Since 1982, the festival has brought together breweries and beer enthusiasts, setting the standard for the American craft beer scene.
With over 500 breweries and cideries participating, attendees can sample a wide range of beers, from refreshing sours to full-bodied stouts, including rare and limited-edition offerings.
For those seeking a gourmet experience, the PAIRED® event offers an exclusive VIP opportunity, uniting the nation’s top independent craft breweries with award-winning chefs. Tailored bites, crafted to complement the unique flavors of select beers, will allow you to explore the intricate relationship between fine dining and craft brewing.
Beyond beer, GABF offers everything from live music and a silent disco to Lucha Libre Mexican wrestling. Additional highlights include costume contests, gourmet food trucks, and karaoke, providing plenty of opportunities for fun and discovery.
General admission tickets start at $85 per day, and a 3-Day Festival Bundle, which includes access to all general sessions, is available for $220. PAIRED® tickets cost $129, while a PAIRED® + GABF combo option is available for $199.
