FAQ's

While printing out your ticket is not required as we can scan you phone, we request that you do for this event. Normally we are all about saving trees, but if you show it on your phone, there can be a bad sun glare making it hard to quickly scan. Either way, please do not forget valid photo ID!

This is a 21+ event for ALL attendees and requires proper ID to enter the venue. If you do not have valid ID and cannot enter, there will be no refunds. Children are not allowed unless they are infants in on-body carriers only (no strollers!!). NOTE - there is live music and DJs making it loud in some areas and this is an event where alcohol is present.

This event is rain or shine. That's one of the best things about this event - it's mostly covered! If it is a rainy day, some opportunities may not be available (like walking the bases or touring the dugouts) due to both guest and field safety. We suggest that you do bring a rain jacket since when walking around, some sections are not covered between event areas.

ASSUMPTION OF RISK AND WAIVER

Unless your pet is an approved service animal with paperwork, pets are not allowed at the festival. Sorry!

Many of the awesome ballpark favorites will be opened around the concourse and VIP area! With the exception of a pretzel necklace, no food is allowed to be brought into the ballpark. Please see FAQ #14 above for more info on what is allowed through the gates.

Please note that some beer & wine stations are more popular than others. While not the norm, some may run out before the end of the event/session. We do limit the amount of beer that is poured during a session to make sure that there is enough for the next session. We HIGHLY suggest that you get to the event early and get to the beers you most want to try first! We have a great event program that will point you right to each brewery & varietal and we share the list before the event so you can plan ahead. CHEERS!

Approximately 20-30 minutes before the end of a session or the event, we will call "Last Pour". What this means is grab your last samples in the next 15 minutes before the stands close 10-15 minutes before the end of the session and no more beer will be poured.

Yes! We always have several gluten free beers as well as wine & cocktails. We mark the GF beers on the program with a green GF next to the varietal.

This event will follow all current ballpark guidelines. Please see here for details: https://www.mlb.com/pirates/ballpark/information/2021-health-safety-protocols
