There’s no better place to celebrate craft beer than Denver, which is exactly what you’ll be doing at this year’s Mile High Beer Festival. Sip on drafts from well-known giants in the Colorado beer scene as well as newer niche breweries waiting to make a splash.
Featuring local craft beer, this year’s festival takes place on Saturday, March 1st, 2025 at The Refractory in central Denver. There are two-time slots for guests. After you arrive, you’ll receive a commemorative glass and have 2.5 hours to taste all the unlimited samples you want.
At the Mile High Beer Festival, you’ll enjoy live music from local bands, and culinary treats from participating food trucks, retail, and vendors. This is only for those 21+. Gluten-free folks should feel welcome as they often host not only breweries but also liquor distilleries and cideries.

Early entry tickets that will buy you another 30 minutes are available, too, though they are more expensive. Keep in mind that tickets tend to sell out year after year, so it’s a good idea to purchase them early.
