Back by popular demand! KPLF is thrilled to announce the return of our Librewery Beer Festival on September 14th! This fantastic and fun event saw its first outing in 2019 and was a huge hit! We had such a great time, selling out in 2022 that we’re hosting it once again in the Library parking lot from 1 - 5pm.

We have a great line-up of local & regional breweries participating: 42nd Parallel, Brewery 44, Untold, Vitamin Sea Brewing, Sour Not Sorry, Barrel House Z, Second Wind, Mayflower, IndieFerm, and Break Rock. In addition, you'll enjoy music from The Shed Heads, raffles, games, food & more!

Tickets will go on sale on Friday, July 25th. Check back then and grab your tickets while they last! Tickets are limited and will sell first come, first served. The cost is $45 per person until Sept. 1st; after Sept. 1st the cost is $55 each. Ticketed access gets you unlimited pours* from the breweries in a souvenir glass. Guests looking to enjoy good company and great music, but not interested in sampling beer, are welcome to attend at no cost -- kids too!

Online sales will close on Sept. 13th and any remaining will be sold at the gate. We hope to see you there! *while supplies last
