In honor of Motley Brews’ Great Vegas Festival of Beer’s fifth anniversary, the City of Las Vegas has declared Saturday, April 11 as Motley Brews Craft Beer Day.
“Having the day named after us is a great way to celebrate these past five years and how craft beer culture has grown in leaps and bounds over that time,” said Brian Chapin, founder of Motley Brews. “The craft beer community, culinary masterminds and local businesses have been incredibly supportive since we hosted our first festival in 2011, and we owe a lot of our success to them.”
The 2015 Great Vegas Festival of Beer, Nevada’s largest craft beer festival, will celebrate this milestone throughout the streets of Downtown Las Vegas on Saturday, April 11 from 3 to 7 p.m. The event will host over 6,000 beer enthusiasts, 400 brews from more than 100 breweries, live music, beer-infused culinary treats, life-size pub games, a silent disco and more.
Tickets are on sale and priced at $40 for General Admission and $50 for Early Entry, available online until the day of the festival. Pending availability, General Admission and Early Entry tickets will be available at the door for $45 and $55 respectively. VIP tickets have already sold out.
