SOUTH BEND, Ind. — South Bend Century Center is excited to reveal the details of its Fourth Annual South Bend BrewFest event to be held in downtown South Bend.

BrewFest will take place at the Century Center on Saturday, Jan. 24, and will showcase specialty and craft beers from local breweries from South Bend and the surrounding areas.

In concordance with South Bend’s 150th birthday celebration, attendees will have the opportunity to sample more than 150 beer varieties and flavors. The first 150 people through the door will also receive a special, commemorative gift. In addition to the beer tasting, BrewFest will also feature live music, pretzel necklaces, live home brew demonstrations and a charity auction.

This year, BrewFest will offer three options for event tickets: general admission, VIP tickets and designated driver tickets, all of which can be purchased online through the Downtown South Bend, Inc. website. All of these ticket options are available for pre-sale opportunities. Pre-sale ticket prices are as follows: $35 for general admission, $60 for VIP, and $10 for designated driver tickets. General admission tickets will be available at the door for $40, but VIP and designated driver tickets must be purchased in advance.

For those who have purchased general admission tickets, BrewFest will be open from 1 p.m. until 4 p.m. VIP participants will have early access to the event at noon, in addition to their own VIP section. The VIP ticket also includes a gourmet food tasting and an opportunity to sample an exclusive selection of specialty brews. The designated driver ticket includes unlimited soft drinks, access to the live entertainment and a food ticket.

BrewFest has been well received by the Michiana area, drawing in hundreds of participants in the past three years, proving that the craft beer craze is here to stay. Not only does BrewFest provide the opportunity to sample several beers under one roof, but it delivers a special occasion to support small, local businesses in the Michiana area.
