5th Houston Beer Fest
Sat., & Sun., June 13 – 14, 2015
2PM until 10PM each day
Hermann Square Park & Surrounding Streets
Houston’s 5th Beer Festival takes place Sat. & Sun., June 13 - 14, 2015 from 2PM - 10
pm, at Hermann Square Park (900 Smith, Houston, TX 77002). This Festival celebrates
Houston’s favorite beverage but, this celebration includes far more than just beer. Fans will
be treated to music on multiple stages, a wide variety of food and food trucks, arts & crafts,
beer pong tournaments and more.
Texas’ largest beer festival expanded to 2 days last year and returns this year to Hermann
Square Park, Tranquility Park and the area surrounding Houston’s City Hall. This year you
should see a more efficient and professional status with more money spent on marketing.
EWMedia is back to handle the vendors.
Vendor space for this Festival will sell-out due to the fact that there is less space available
than last year. Booths are sold on a first-come, first-serve basis.
Application begins on next page…
