LA Independent Beer Fest – The signature event of LA Beer Week

June 10, 2023 @ 1:00 pm - 5:00 pm

The 14th Annual L.A. Beer Week is here! Join us for our big Kickoff Festival on Saturday, June 10th at Shoreline Aquatic Park in Long Beach! We are bringing the heat this summer with an awesome festival featuring 75 independent craft breweries, live music by Feed the Kitty (and more!), great local food, games, and more!

Produced by the Los Angeles County Brewers Guild#LABW14 will feature the largest number of Los Angeles County-based craft breweries — more than any other festival in town! Join us and support your local brewers and the nonprofit organization that strives to foster craft beer culture in L.A. County. Admission includes a keepsake glass and unlimited tastes of over 150 beers from 75 breweries. This is surely a not-to-miss summer festival!

VIP Tickets include early entry at 12pm, and access to special and rare beers only available during the first hour of the fest.

Shoreline Aquatic Park is a beautiful rolling grass-covered park with stunning views of Long Beach harbor. We encourage you to bring blankets and camp chairs and spend a day in the sun while sipping the best of LA beer.

  • General Admission: $60
