Upcoming editions expand the festival experience with a broader mix of brews, spirits, and food partners, all while supporting veteran housing initiatives. For the 2025 edition, plan for a mid-day event with an outdoor footprint at Hollywood Casino Joliet, typically drawing around 2,000 attendees. VIP options and exclusive bungalow experiences have sold out in past years, underscoring the value of early planning. In 2026, expect a two-day/over-two-day style program labeled as a mix of the traditional festival and an extended beer & bourbon experience, with Friday evening kickoff and a Saturday session.
