Join us on Saturday, June 22 for the 2nd Annual WeldWerks Invitational Festival at the DoubleTree in Downtown Greeley, CO. Tickets are $100 each, which include a commemorative tasting glass and samples of nearly 100 beers from 40+ of the best breweries in the country. Several local food trucks will be on site with food available for purchase separately (food is not included with tickets). The best part is that 100% of the proceeds from the festival will benefit local Weld County nonprofit organizations (we raised over $40,000 in 2018!). Each session will last exactly three hours, so be sure to purchase tickets for the correct session:

Afternoon Session 11:00 - 2:00 PM
Evening Session 4:00 - 7:00 PM

Other than timing, there are no differences between the two sessions and equal amounts of all beers will be available at both sessions. In order to give as many people the opportunity to attend as possible, there is a strict limit of one session per person.

Here is a tentative list of breweries who will be returning from 2018, with nearly 15 new breweries being announced shortly:
