The East Nashville Beer Festival is a beloved Nashville tradition that has been bringing the best craft beer to Music City since 2011. The 15th annual edition in 2026 takes place on Saturday, April 11 at East Park, from noon to 5 PM. Presented by M.L.Rose Craft Beer & Burgers, the festival features unlimited samples from 50+ craft breweries with 150+ unique beers.
The festival is about more than just beer — it features live music, live wrestling (a crowd favorite addition), a vendor village, and eight of Nashville's best food trucks. Gates open at noon with ticket scanning beginning at 11:15 AM, giving attendees a full five hours of craft beer exploration in the neighborhood park setting.
Since its founding, the East Nashville Beer Festival has raised well over $250,000 for local Nashville nonprofit organizations. The festival embodies the creative, community-focused spirit of East Nashville — one of the city's most vibrant and culturally rich neighborhoods.
The East Nashville Beer Festival was born in April 2011 with two simple goals: to bring the best craft beer to Nashville, and to raise funds for local nonprofits. Founded by Rhizome Productions, the festival found its natural home in East Nashville — a neighborhood known for its independent spirit, thriving music scene, and strong sense of community.
East Park, a leafy green space on Woodland Street, proved to be the perfect venue. The neighborhood park setting gives the festival an intimate, community-block-party feel that distinguishes it from larger, more corporate beer events. Over the years, the festival has offered more than 1,000 unique beers and showcased amazing local live music while raising over $250,000 for various nonprofit organizations.
The addition of live wrestling in recent years added an unexpected and wildly popular element to the festival. It's a move that perfectly captures the East Nashville ethos — creative, a little unconventional, and always entertaining. After 15 years, the East Nashville Beer Fest has become one of the city's most anticipated spring events.
