The Atlantic City Beer & Music Festival is gearing up to celebrate its 20th anniversary this spring with a full-day spectacle of craft beers, live music, and interactive experiences that will undoubtedly draw in crowds.
On April 11, the festival will take over the Atlantic City Convention Center, bringing together more than 100 breweries from across the region. Attendees can choose between two ticketed sessions: an afternoon session running from noon to 4 pm featuring Bayside, or an evening session from 6 to 10 pm headlined by The Starting Line.
Beyond the music and beer, attendees will find a wide array of activities spread throughout the convention center, including carnival-style games, a mystery beer experience, and food vendors. Interactive challenges and a silent disco add to the festival's excitement, offering something for everyone.
A weekend kicks off earlier on Friday, April 10, with the Atlantic City Beer & Music Festival Rare Beer Fest at the Anchor Rock Club. This event features limited-release and specialty beers poured by select breweries.
Tickets range in price from around $90 for single-session admission to roughly $180 for VIP options, with weekend passes priced in between and additional fees added at checkout. Designated driver tickets will be available for $30 at the door. All attendees must be 21 or older with valid photo identification.

I mean, it's not like it's a total tourist trap in AC... yet 
. Seriously though, $180 for VIP options? That's like, steep. And don't even get me started on the lines for the bathrooms... will there be, like, an endless supply of Uber drivers to take us home? 
Anyway, if you're a beer connoisseur or just looking for something fun to do this spring, I guess it's worth checking out? 
. Like, who needs sleep when you can have unlimited craft beers and live music, right? 
meanwhile, the rare beer fest on friday might just be an opportunity for us to slow down and appreciate the craft of brewin', but we're too busy celebratin' to even notice... also, $180 for a vip ticket? that's like, a whole day's worth of meals... do we really need to pay that much to have fun? 
Like, who needs a festival when you can just have beer and music on a Friday night? The Atlantic City Beer & Music Festival is about to get this party started!

anyway i went to this event last year and it was literally my fave day ever - got to try all these amazing beers and see some awesome bands perform. the atmosphere was so chill and fun, everyone was just vibing with each other... anyway i think its gonna be even bigger and better this time around, gotta get me a ticket ASAP 
I'm planning on getting there early to check out the Rare Beer Fest on Friday, that sounds like so much fun. Also, 100+ breweries is insane, I'll need to pace myself with those beers lol 
. The music lineup sounds sick too - Bayside in the afternoon and The Starting Line at night? That's like the ultimate combo 
.
. Guess I'll just have to save up and make sure my ID is ready for the door. Anyone got tips on which beers to try first? 
. We should be investing our money in programs that support low-income families and promoting sustainability instead of overpriced festivals 
I've been to the festival before and it's literally one of my fave events of the year, there's always somethin goin on, whether it's a new brewery or just a great vibe. this year tho, they're celebratin 20 yrs of it so u know it's gonna be lit! I'm thinkin about gettin a weekend pass tho 'cause I wanna check out both the day and night sessions 
who doesn't love emo music?! lol anywayz cant wait, it's gonna be one epic weekend!
! I'm so hyped it's their 20th anniversary and they're bringing over 100 breweries to the convention center ! I mean, who doesn't love trying new craft beers on a sunny spring day? 
It's not just about the beer tho, there's live music too, including Bayside & The Starting Line - perfect for a fun day out with mates or family. And let's not forget the carnival games & food vendors - it's like a mini-festival in itself! I'm thinking of getting tickets ASAP, who else is going? 
also, i love that they have interactive games and stuff for everyone to enjoy
