Orlando Beer Festival 2025 Brewer, Vendor & Sponsor Application

Saturday, November 15, 2025 | Festival Park, Orlando | Noon to 5pm
The 11th Annual Orlando Beer Festival
For the Love of Local Craft Beer, beautiful fall weather, all things Orlando and now for all the innovative adult beverages across the spectrum... Orlando Beer Festival is the regions largest tasting event! 

“Orlando Beer Festival is the best kind of chaos—so many brews, amazing people, and a vibe that’s just unmatched. I’ve discovered new favorites every year, and not just about beer! I love being able to talk to the folks behind the brands. It’s a fall festival tradition!”
— Taylor, Orlando, FL

At this annual celebration of craft and community, we bring together the best in beer culture—dozens of local, regional, and national breweries, all in one place, pouring everything from classic lagers to creative sours, bold IPAs, hard ciders, canned cocktails, and even spirits. This year marks our 11th anniversary, and we’re going big.

And it’s not just about beer! Orlando Beer Festival delivers a full-on experience with live music, DJs, college football on the Jumbotron, interactive games (giant beer pong, anyone?), and a curated lineup of local artisans, businesses, and food trucks. It’s the ultimate way to spend a Saturday in the heart of Orlando—with your crew, your dog, and a cold one in hand.

Attendees pay one price and sample endlessly. That means no barriers to visiting your booth or brand. They come ready to explore, connect, and enjoy. Whether you’re sampling, selling, or showcasing—you’ll have a constant flow of high-energy, 21+ attendees all day long.

And of course, Orlando Weekly knows how to throw a party. With ten years under our belt, we’ve fine-tuned the mix of great drinks, big energy, and local love that keeps people coming back year after year.

We invite you to apply as we curate our 2025 collection of breweries, beverage brands, artisan vendors, and sponsors to showcase at this year’s Orlando Beer Festival—the biggest one yet!

Thank you for your interest! If selected, we ask that you bring your best so you can impress this crowd of food and drink enthusiasts with disposable income! You'll have the opportunity to meet locals face to face, have them sample your products and tell them about your business.

Plan to bring promotional items, swag to decorate your area, anything you can bring to make you memorable! Though the largest of its kind in Central Florida, this is still a boutique event -- small enough where you're not competing with hundreds of vendors. Still, you want to make yourself stand out!

Our goal is to provide an exciting environment, where attendees are easy to approach, relaxed, having a great time, and open to your brand!Your job is to attract, engage, educate and excite them!
