The Capitol Beer Fest is back for its 12th year this Sat., March 5 from 1-4 p.m. at the Capitol Mall. The event will happen rain or shine, so get ready to say cheers to beer + raising money for young runners. 🍻
What is Capitol Beer Fest?
- The annual festival gathers ~100 high-quality craft brewers from all over California to showcase new + classic brews alike. Watch the 2021 Capitol Beer Fest highlight video to see what you can expect + check out the full list of brewers attending this year and learn where they’re based and what brews they’re bringing.
Who organizes the event?
- Runnin’ for Rhett is a local nonprofit that aims to “nurture healthy communities through fitness and nutrition.” Every event worker is a volunteer, so 100% of the proceeds can directly fund the nonprofit’s Youth Fitness Program. The event brings in ~$250,000 annually for youth participation in running events + gifting new running shoes to those in need.
I don’t drink. Will I still have a good time?
- We sure think so. There will be a stage with live music from Daze on the Green + 24 local food trucks offering delicious bites for all the foodies in attendance. Note: Food is not included with the price of your ticket.
Can I still purchase a ticket?
- Yes. There will be no tickets sold at the gate, so make sure to get yours online this week.

🍺 $15 for non-drinkers + designated drivers.
🍺 $45 for general admission.
