2023 DC Beer Fest

The annual DC Beer Festival is one of the most iconic festivals to take place in Nationals Park. Every year, thousands of people flock to the stadium to get a taste of the impressive selection of craft breweries and food trucks.

This year, the festival has two great ticket options: General Admission is $50 and comes with unlimited access to over 80 excellent breweries, live music, and access to the food truck alley and dueling piano bar. If you’re leaning towards a more exclusive option, then the $90 VIP Admission is a steal! At this price tier, you can go home with a DC Beer Fest beanie, a commemorative tasting glass, and access to the warning track and dugouts.

Since this is a non-smoking event, you might not be able to light a joint in the middle of the festival. Don’t let this ruin your 420 celebrations, though! You can certainly smoke a bowl at home or join in the festivities with some discreet edibles.

Rain or shine, the show must go on! Bring all your 21 and over buddies to one of the most vibrant events of the year!
