Where, oh where can I get my Brewers Fest Tickets?
You can now purchase and print Flour City Breweres Fest tickets online via the tickets page at www.flourcitybrewersfest.com/. Tickets can also be purchased in person at both Rohrbach Brewing Company locations, Rochester-area Wegmans, AJs Beer Warehouse & Beers of the World.

Will tickets still be available at the gate?
Yes, pending availability.  VIP tickets sold out in less than one hour and GA tickets are going faster than ever!  We cap the overall attendance to help manage lines and crowd size. We'd encourage you to not wait and purchase online at your earliest convenience.

Wait a second, VIP Tickets sold out??
Indeed they did.  But, we guarantee a quality event for all ticket holders, including Designated Drivers.  Great music, great food, and good times can be enjoyed by all!  Designated accompanying a group will not be turned away. Those tickets can be purchased online or at the gate for $10.

What do I get with my GA Ticket?
General Admission to Brewers Fest grants access at 6pm, a 6oz sampling glass, and access to all breweries, food trucks, and more.

Are there any age restrictions?
Yes, all guests, including DDs, must be 21 or over. Please, no children or babies.

Will I be required to show photo ID?
Yes. The following are the only accepted form of identification:
-  Valid Driver's License

-  Military or Government Photo ID
Note: Expired photo identification of any kind cannot be used to validate your age.  Student identification cards are NOT a valid form of identification.

What is the entrance & re-entry policy?
There will be two entrances into the festival: one on the Railroad Street side and one on the North Union Street Side. There is no re-entry into the event. Please plan accordingly.

Are there any restrictions on items?
Strollers, pets, and any outside food/beverage will not be permitted into the festival. Bags may be subject to check by security.

Should I bring a chair?
Yes, we encourage it!

What happens if it rains?
Rain or shine, the event will go on! Rest assured, we will have plenty of coverage under the several pavilions at the market.

Can I leave my car in the city lot over night?
Yes, you may leave your car overnight in any of the Public Market Lots. Please do not drink and drive!

So what breweries are attending, anyway?
We are expecting more than 60 breweries this year! Plus, 5 cideries, and a handful of other vendors including distilleries, wineries and more! The full lineup can be found on the "Breweries" tab at http://www.flourcitybrewfest.com/.

Can I bring a growler for some goodness to go?
No, sorry. No alcohol can leave the fenced venue area.

What about food?
We have invited EIGHT food trucks to offer their culinary delights!

Sounds awesome! What else can we expect?
Live music will be featured compliments of Grass is Dead. Also, Rochester?s own Teagan Ward will kick off the VIP slot and start the GA festivities.  In addition, we've upped the amount of restrooms and are ensuring there will be adequate sources of bottled water.  We made these changes based on the feedback you provided us regarding last year's fest!

Uh, you spelled "Flower" wrong?
Yes, Rochester is known as the Flower City, however, traditionalists will recognize that it was originally "Flour," not "Flower," and we wish to observe Rochester?s original name!

Is there a charity aspect to the festival?
Yes. Flour City Brewer's Fest has been supporting Holiday Outreach (www.holidayoutreach.org) since moving to High Falls in 1996.  During the holiday season, the team at Holiday Outreach uses funds raised during various events held throughout the year to provide food to area food pantries and soup kitchens and provide gifts for children in the Rochester, NY area. The board members and other volunteers shop for food, toys and clothes to be distributed during the holiday season. Volunteers also assist in the wrapping and distribution of these gifts.

Furthermore, proceeds from the Flour City Brewers Fest benefit the New York State Brewers Association (NYSBA), a 501(c)6 that was founded in 2003 to serve as a promotional and legislative proponent for New York State breweries, microbreweries, farm breweries, brewpubs and brewing affiliated businesses. The growth of the Craft Beer segment continues to be strong and New York State's share of that growth has exceeded that of breweries on the national level.

Are there ATMs on site?
Yes, ATM machines will be available on-site.
