The Big Texas Beer Fest is Dallas’ original beer festival. The 2025 event is the 13th annual. We started this thing back in 2011. It’s been 14 years, but we’re still here. We were the first, dedicated craft beer festival, and still one of the best in the state of Texas. Big Texas Beer Fest takes place on April 12, 2025, at the Fair Park Automobile Building. We’ll be featuring 70+ breweries and 300-400+ beers, ciders, hard seltzers, hard kombuchas, meads, and more.

BTBF is well-known as the festival to go to for exclusive and rare beers, one-offs, and special beers you can’t find on store shelves. Since brewers never know when beers will be ready, we always release the beer list about 1 week before the event. Grab your tickets now, as they have always sold out in advance.

As you might expect, at least one-third of our brewers are from Texas. However, we have brewers from across the United States and internationally, too.

Plenty of food will be available from one of our many food trucks, or local food vendors. While you eat, listen to local music acts on our outdoor stage!
