Not sure what to expect at the 2026 Arkansas Valley Summer Brew Fest? Here’s the simple version.

You arrive, check in, and pay $30. In return, you receive a 5 oz tasting mug on a lanyard and a wristband. This is your access for the evening.

From there, you are free to explore. Beverage stations are set up throughout the space. Each one offers small pours meant for tasting, not rushing. You keep your mug, move at your own pace, and try what interests you.

The evening is set up as a slow walk through flavors, conversation, and discovery. It is not about staying in one place. It is about experiencing what is offered across the event.

Philly Flavors CO and Panini Island will be there with a range of options to enjoy alongside your tastings.

Music is part of the atmosphere all night. Local entertainer Kenny Ray Arguello will serve as MC and DJ and help keep the evening moving.

A few things to know:
• This is a 21+ event. Bring your ID
• The layout is walkable. Plan to move between stations
• Water between tastings is encouraged
• Comfortable, casual attire works best for an outdoor evening

That is it. No complicated structure. Just an evening built around sampling, music, and time well spent.

It’s not rushed. It’s not formal.

It’s an evening of small pours, good food, and great music under the open sky.

2026 Arkansas Valley Summer Brew Fest takes place June 12 at Santa Fe Plaza, with breweries, food trucks, and music from Kenny Arguello throughout the night.

You wander. You taste. You stay as long as you want.

That’s the point.

*The Arkansas Valley Summer Brew Fest is a fundraiser for the Plaza Block Building
