This Spring's Washington Crossing Brewfest Is On Cinco de Mayo

The date has been set for the 8th annual Washington Crossing Spring Brewfest and tickets go on sale Thursday, Feb. 1 at a special, two-week-only price of $40. After Feb. 14, the price increases to $45.

This year's event will be held on May 5 — which just so happens to be Cinco de Mayo.

The brewfest – which sells out every year – will be held from 12:30 to 4:30 p.m. in a wooded, riverside section of Washington Crossing Historic Park. The event features sampling of at least 130 beers from more than 60 regional and national breweries, live music and multiple food vendors.

The brewfest is held by the Friends of Washington Crossing Park and supported by the First National Bank of Newtown. All proceeds are directed to educational and historical programming in the park.

Tickets will be sold at WashingtonCrossingBrewfest.com and the park Visitor Center near the intersection of River Road and Rt. 532. A limited number of designated driver tickets will also be available online only for $10.

The brewfest is held in the upper part of the park (1638 River Road, New Hope), behind the Thompson-Neely House and across the street from Bowman’s Hill Wildflower Preserve.
