The first-ever Tulare Backyard Brew Fest, a 21 and over event, is a chance for the community to come together to try breweries and enjoy hometown food and fun. The new event is set for Saturday, July 30 from 4:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. in the International Agri-Center® Arbor in Tulare.
“Our facility is well known for World Ag Expo. What people may not know is we host all types of events. Business meetings, livestock shows, and a multitude of other events. We wanted to highlight our beautiful arbor area as an outdoor venue for events like our brew fest,” said Brian Haney, Facility Manager. “Our guests will enjoy craft beers from different breweries, fun games, great food, and an amazing live band. We will have a one-of-a-kind cooling station, a cigar bar, and lots of shade. Our mission at the International Agri-Center is to support youth ag education. Events like these will help us to continue to support this mission.”
General admission tickets are $50, which include unlimited beer samples and a complimentary tasting glass. Designated driver tickets are $10. GA tickets will be $60 at the door.
Tickets can be purchased now at https://bit.ly/backyardbrewfest2022, at the International Agri-Center® office, or on the day of the event.
Attendees can look forward to sampling Central Valley Breweries, a cigar bar, live music by Rudy Parris, and games on the lawn. Live music will begin at 6:00 p.m. The event will have free water, plenty of shaded seating, and cooling stations throughout the grounds. Guests can sample snacks from vendors or purchase from local food trucks.
The brewery list has steadily grown to over 15 well-known California breweries and homebrewers. While the event features many Valley-based breweries, there are some popular breweries from other areas.
