Santa Fe Beer Festival
Welcome to the Santa Fe Beer Festival!
Get ready to raise a glass and toast to the rich brewing heritage of New Mexico as we celebrate the best in local craft beer. For nearly a decade, the Santa Fe Beer Festival has brought together dozens of breweries, unique artisan vendors and food trucks for a memorable summer weekend. Explore our historic grounds and immerse yourself in rich New Mexico history and culture.
Plus, be a part of history as we bring in rancho grown Las Golondrinas hops to learn about New Mexico’s long history of brewing. A slew of local bands play throughout the day, where you can relax under the shade and break from the beer for plenty of cold drinks and treats. This event brings thousands to the Rancho year after year, becoming a Santa Fe Summer tradition for folks across our state. VIP ticket options are available as well (see below).
