“The Craft Brew Garden features an extra level of craft brews, as it is the only place on the festival grounds where you can find these special guest breweries,” the festival says. Here is a list of the breweries.

You’ll also find wine and beer pavilions at six locations throughout the festival grounds. The Grapevine Wine Pavilion offers wines from Grapevine winery tasting rooms.
