Event description

The second annual Legends of Beer Festival combines the best that Reno-Tahoe has to offer including outdoor recreation and craft beer/food. Our main sponsors, Visit Reno-Tahoe and The Outlets at Legends are proud to host you at this one-of-a-kind festival. 

It all starts with a "beer-mile" relay competition that pits 4-person teams against one another to complete the beer mile (drink 1 mystery beer, run 1/4 mile, and make the handoff).

The festival follows the beer-mile relay and features more than 30 craft breweries including local and regional breweries. There will be additional craft beverages other than beer including canned cocktails, mead, cider, and seltzer. There will also be craft non-alcoholic beverage options available for DD's or those who choose no alcohol.

Very Important Drinker (VID) ticket holders get early access including at least 4 beers not available to GA ticket holders. VIBD's will also have front row viewing of the beer mile relay race.

General Admission to the festival includes unlimited beer tastings starting at 1pm.

There will be several food trucks on site as well as access to additional restaurants within the Outlets at Legends.

There are discounted festival prices for "Beer Mile" relay teams as well so be sure to check out the packages if you want to participate in both.
