Philly Beer Fest Returning Saturday, 2 Dozen-Plus Exhibitors Planned

PHILADELPHIA — The Philly Beer Fest is back again in 2025, offering a diverse array of craft brews and local flavors.

This year's festival will be held Saturday at the 23rd Street Armory. There are two sessions, the first is open from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. and the second from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m.

The festival features breweries from across the region and beyond, offering attendees the chance to sample everything from hoppy IPAs to smooth stouts and crisp lagers.

Participants can choose between two sessions featuring pours from Pennsylvania breweries, along with some of the country’s best beers, beverages, food, and more.

Tickets are $39 for regular entry per session, and $55 for early access. Early access tickets have access to expedited entry lines, and allow for early admission.

A portion of the festival's proceeds will be donated to The Trauma Survivors Foundation, a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting individuals affected by trauma through comprehensive mental health services and specialized training for first responders and healthcare professionals.
