Whistler Village Beer Festival

WHISTLER VILLAGE BEER FESTIVAL • 2017 EVENT DATE TBA

Beer in the mountains – it just feels right. 2017 will mark the 5th birthday of Whistler Village Beer Festival, which means even more beer-fueled fun will be coming your way and we’ll be going bigger than ever before. As always, the 5-day event will feature food pairing dinners, unique cask nights, amazing parties, live music, and of course, the incredible 2-day main tasting event. Check out a recap of 2016’s killer party below and stay tuned for more information on 2017 as we get it!

Partiers enjoying Whistler Village Beer Festival activities.

Whistler Olympic Plaza

A giant amphitheatre surrounded by lush green grass, nestled in a world-class resort village, located at the base of the most epic mountains in North America, filled with beer. A legacy in its own right, the Whistler Olympic Plaza as festival venue couldn’t get any better. Beer in hand, you’ll have a view of Whistler’s beautiful mountains and the lively, surrounding village.

Best in Fest

Other festivals give out cute medals. We give out draught contracts. That’s right, the top placing breweries as voted on by festival-goers win draught contracts with real, live venues in Whistler. Save the medals for a dusty brewery shelf, we’re focusing on real growth that benefits both the festival and its partners.
