Fresh Mind will have you dancing and rocking away to our genre mixing sound. Whether it’s a deep Reggae cut or a recent Pop anthem we will bring the energy and the vibe.

Tickets

Chattanooga Beer Fest® is a ticketed craft beer event, providing you with the option to sample tastings from every participating partner – no tokens or additional purchase necessary. We’ll also have plenty of water and soft drink options onsite (pacing yourself is essential to having a fun and safe experience). A selection of food trucks will also be available during the festival.

In addition, every ticketed participant will receive a collector tasting glass! Advance Tickets Sales are $48 per person, and are limited to 1,300 for the 2026 festival experience. At the door tickets, if capacity is available, will be $55. We encourage you to purchase online before the event, save money and help us to provide you with a more enjoyable guest experience.

Designated Driver tickets ($20) are available at the door when accompanying regular admission ticket holders.

This is an Over 21 Only event; a valid legal ID is required for admission.

Important: only tickets purchased directly from chattanoogabeerfest.com will be honored, and “resold tickets” are likely to be fakes/scams.
We’ve seen a lot of that lately, and it makes us sad. Beer fests are supposed to be happy, not sad – buy direct and arrive with confidence.
