The Copper State Beer Festival is the largest craft beverage and food festival in Mesa, Arizona, held each January at Riverview Park along the scenic Salt River. Now in its 5th year for 2026, the festival features over 100 craft beverage vendors offering craft beers, wines, ciders, hard kombucha, and spirits alongside local food trucks, live entertainment, and on-site activities.
The festival uses a tiered ticket system — Platinum, Gold, Silver, and Copper — that allows attendees to customize their experience from exclusive early morning access with barrel-aged specialties to standard afternoon entry. Each tier includes a souvenir glass and varying numbers of sample tokens. Designated Driver passes are also available. The event runs from 11 AM to 5 PM with staggered entry times based on ticket level.
The Copper State Beer Festival burst onto the Arizona craft beer scene in 2022, quickly establishing itself as the largest craft beverage and food festival in Mesa. Held each January at Riverview Park along the scenic Salt River, the festival takes advantage of Arizona's perfect winter weather to create an outdoor tasting experience that draws craft beverage enthusiasts from across the Valley and beyond.
What sets Copper State apart is its ambitious scope and tiered approach to the festival experience. With over 100 craft beverage vendors — spanning craft beer, wine, cider, hard kombucha, and spirits — the festival offers one of the most diverse tasting lineups in the Southwest. The innovative Platinum-Gold-Silver-Copper ticket system allows attendees to customize their experience, from standard afternoon access all the way up to exclusive early morning entry with barrel-aged specialties and premium perks.
Despite being one of the newer festivals on the Arizona beer calendar, Copper State has grown rapidly. The combination of Riverview Park's spacious grounds, the January timing that avoids the brutal desert summer, and an ever-expanding vendor lineup has propelled the festival to its 5th anniversary in 2026. With live entertainment, food trucks, and on-site activities complementing the impressive beverage selection, the Copper State Beer Festival has carved out a major presence in Arizona's thriving craft beverage culture.
