Local Event
Cost: $60-$85 + Fees
We will kick-off Up North BeerFest with a special VIP event, which will take place on Saturday, June 13th from Noon - 1:30pm. This VIP event will include up to 15 Breweries serving specialty craft beers that will not be served during the main event. All VIP participants are also welcome to participate in the Main Event - sampling beers from up to 30 different Breweries. Festival goers to the Up North BeerFest VIP event will receive a sampling glass for their 2-3 ounce pours, a beer guide, food voucher and live music.
THE MAIN EVENT
The main event—Up North BeerFest—goes from 2 to 6 p.m. Saturday and includes up to 30 breweries from Wisconsin and the Midwest. Festivalgoers will be given a sampling glass for their 2 to 3-ounce pours, a beer guide to find breweries at the festival, and live music. Food is available for purchase from the Eagle River Veterans Resource Center.
Many of the breweries will be recognizable, from Eagle River’s very own Tribute Brewing Co. and Riverstone Brewing Company to O'SO Brewing Company. But there are other opportunities to try beers from lesser-known brewers like Haen's Popple River Brewing and Karben4 Brewing.
Be sure to make a transportation plan before coming to the event on Saturday. Designated drivers are free to attend if accompanying a paid admission for the Saturday event. While parking is available on the grounds, many of our overnight lodging partners are providing free shuttle transportation to and from Hi-Pines Campground before, during, and after the events. No children, pets, or carry-ins are allowed to the event. Smoking is not allowed under the tented sampling areas.
