The Williamsburg Craft Beer Festival is an annual celebration of craft beer, local food, and live music held at the scenic Jamestown Beach Event Park in Williamsburg, Virginia. Now in its eleventh year for 2026, this community-focused festival has raised over $260,000 for local non-profits, with 100% of proceeds going directly to charitable organizations in the Williamsburg area.
The festival features a VIP hour from noon to 1 PM followed by general admission from 1 to 5 PM. Beer drinker tickets are $45 at the gate, while non-drinker tickets are $25. Children 12 and under attend free with a paid adult ticket. The 2026 edition benefits Real People Educating Others (RPEO), Paws of Honor, One Child, and FISH.
Set against the backdrop of Jamestown Beach Event Park, attendees enjoy craft beer tastings, great local food, and live music throughout the afternoon. The festival is organized in partnership with the Williamsburg Rotary Club and ASPIRE, the Williamsburg Chamber of Commerce initiative.
The Williamsburg Craft Beer Festival launched in 2016 as a way to bring the community together while raising money for local non-profits. From its first year at Jamestown Beach Event Park, the festival established a simple but powerful model: throw a great beer festival and give every dollar of profit back to the community.
Over its first decade, the festival has lived up to that promise, raising more than $260,000 for Williamsburg-area non-profits. Each year, the festival selects new beneficiary organizations, ensuring the impact spreads across the community. The 2026 edition supports Real People Educating Others, Paws of Honor, One Child, and FISH.
The partnership between the festival organizers, the Williamsburg Rotary Club, and ASPIRE (the Williamsburg Chamber of Commerce initiative) has provided a stable foundation for growth. What started as a local gathering has become one of the Williamsburg area's most anticipated spring events, drawing craft beer enthusiasts to the beautiful waterfront setting of Jamestown Beach Event Park each April or May.
