More Breweries Added, Tickets Still On Sale For Tinley Brew And Vine

TINLEY PARK, IL — Ticket sales continue for Tinley Brew & Vine, with more breweries added to the lineup.

Now expanded to two days and moved to a new venue, this year's event is set for Friday, April 5 and Saturday, April 6, and will be held at Odyssey Country Club.

"A facelift to a familiar event and an extra day to enjoy!" the TInley Park Chamber of Commerce said on the event's website.

Previously held at the Tinely Convention Center, chamber staff decided to freshen the event up with a move to Odyssey Country Club, 19110 Ridgeland Ave.

"The change of venue was to change the event up, do a little bit of a makeover," said Executive Director Tom McNulty. "A little bit of a smaller footprint, but allows a more of an intimate environment, little cozier with the vendors and the vintners, and the food vendors, as well."

Fest hours will be 7 to 11 p.m. each day, with VIP access opening an hour earlier. Also new this year is a bourbon tasting to be held on Saturday, April 6. The Whistle Sports Bar & Grill will host the tasting which will feature a "multitude" of bourbons to sip, McNulty said.

New additions to the breweries and vintner lists are in bold.
