About San Diego Brew Fest

The San Diego Brew Fest is one of Southern California's premier winter beer festivals, now in its 15th year for 2026. Held each January at Preble Field at Liberty Station — the beautifully redeveloped former Naval Training Center — the festival features over 70 breweries pouring more than 200 different beers, ranging from local San Diego favorites to regional and international selections.

General Admission tickets ($50) provide access from 1 PM to 4 PM with unlimited tastings, while Early Admission tickets ($65) grant entry at noon with an extra hour of specialty beers. The festival also features 10 of San Diego's best food trucks, cover bands, and lawn games. Designated Driver tickets are available for $20 at the door. The event is strictly 21+ with free street parking available.

The Story of San Diego Brew Fest

The San Diego Brew Fest has been a staple of the region's winter festival calendar since its founding around 2012, growing into one of San Diego's most anticipated craft beer celebrations. Now in its 15th year for 2026, the festival takes over Preble Field at Liberty Station — the beautifully redeveloped former Naval Training Center — for an afternoon of unlimited craft beer tastings set against the backdrop of one of America's great beer cities.

With over 70 breweries pouring more than 200 different beers, the San Diego Brew Fest showcases the remarkable depth of San Diego's craft beer scene alongside regional and national selections. The festival's location at Liberty Station provides a spacious, park-like setting perfect for a leisurely afternoon of sampling, with food trucks, cover bands, and lawn games rounding out the experience.

The event's January timing makes it one of the first major beer festivals of the year in Southern California, kicking off the craft beer season while taking advantage of San Diego's famously mild winter weather. Early Admission ticket holders enjoy an extra hour of tasting starting at noon with access to specialty beers during the first hour, while General Admission guests join at 1 PM.
