Craft beer lovers will have plenty to toast this spring as ArtsQuest and the Lehigh Valley Brewers’ Guild team up once again for Spring Beerfest IV.
The annual festival returns on March 28 to the Musikfest Café at the ArtsQuest Center at SteelStacks (101 Founders Way, Bethlehem, PA 18015), featuring unlimited sampling from more than 25 local breweries. Guests can also participate in raffles for exclusive prizes, with a portion of proceeds benefiting Habitat for Humanity, courtesy of the guild.
Since launching in 2023, Spring Beerfest has grown steadily, becoming one of the region’s most anticipated craft beer events.
“I’m incredibly proud of the partnership ArtsQuest has built with the Lehigh Valley Brewers’ Guild and how Spring Beerfest has grown into a signature community event,” said Nicholas Michael, ArtsQuest director of corporate partnerships. “Working to showcase the talented brewers in the area brings together the community in a shared admiration for their craft and proves that they are, indeed, a headline act.”
Michael added that participation from the Lehigh Valley Homebrewers further highlights the region’s reputation as a hub for fresh craft beer.
General admission tickets are divided into two sessions: 2-4 p.m. and 5-7 p.m. VIP ticket holders will receive early entry at 1 p.m., one complimentary raffle ticket for a VIP-exclusive ArtsQuest raffle, and a limited-edition collectible item from the guild.
“Spring Beerfest is a celebration of the creativity and collaboration that defines the Lehigh Valley craft beer community,” said Josh Divers, board president of the Lehigh Valley Brewers’ Guild. “It’s an opportunity for local breweries to come together, showcase what makes this region special, and connect directly with the people who support us year-round.”
