KC Beer Fest Tickets

KC Beer Fest stands as a celebrated craft beer festival rooted in community spirit and great beer. Founded in 2008 by the Kansas City CARE Clinic (now KC CARE) and the AIDS Service Foundation of Greater Kansas City, the festival blends a community mission with a love of beer. Held in the heart of downtown Kansas City’s Power & Light District, the two-block footprint near 13th Street and Grand Boulevard brings together beer lovers, live music, and tasty bites.

While KC Beer Fest is primarily known for its curated selection of more than 200 hand-picked beers from around the world, it also offers a charitable bent—historically a portion of ticket sales supported Drink Local Think Global. The festival is part of a broader Kansas City beer ecosystem that includes related events like KC Brew Fest at Union Station (February 21, 2026).
