America’s largest craft beer festival is the Great American Beer Festival (GABF), which is held in Denver, but it’s moving in 2026… Not out of Denver, just to a new venue.

For the first time in its 43-year history, the GABF will be held outside. The Brewers Association announced GABF will move from the Colorado Convention Center to Levitt Pavilion.

This year’s celebration is scheduled for Saturday, Oct. 10 and Sunday, Oct. 11, which is down from recent three day festival runs. Sessions for both days will be noon to 4 p.m.

Tickets for GABF go on sale in June and will start at $60.
