We’re gonna give it to you straight. There is no way to truly explain the gigantic scale of GABF other than to actually experience the festival. But, we think these numbers paint a pretty clear picture on why this is the craft beer event of the year!

• 3 days
• 4 sessions
• 49,000 attendees
• 450+ breweries
• 2,200+ beers
• 36,000 gallons of beer
• 100 tons of ice
• 3,400 volunteers
• 54,000 volunteer hours

If you plan to make the most out of this opportunity to sample so many of America’s great beers, we suggest you purchase an All Session Pass, which will allow you to spread out your tasting across the three days and four sessions of the festival.
