Some brew fests turn into rowdy affairs that you wouldn’t necessarily bring your family to, though the annual Vail Valley Brew’Au is different. Set at the Avon Performance Pavilion in Nottingham Park in Avon, Colorado, this summer event is family-friendly and even has a designated Family Zone.
Enjoy tasting over 60 craft brews from 30 breweries while you listen to great live music at this beautiful lakeside outdoor venue. Occurring on TBD 2025 (last event: Saturday, August 10, 2024), be prepared for hours with plenty of great beer and live music. The casual, relaxed atmosphere of the brew fest allows you to unwind and enjoy the experience.
