The event will take over T-Mobile Park on Saturday, April 25th for the 7th year, with even more bacon-inspired dishes, creative craft beers, on-site activations and contests. Voted the #1 Nationally-Touring Specialty Food Festival by USA Today, this ultimate food and drink festival has taken over professional sports stadiums and excited fans across the country since 2014. This all-inclusive festival is a unique experience that offers unlimited tastes of dishes prepared by local chefs and unlimited sips of regional beers & ciders. Snap pics in the Hormel® Black Label Bacon photo booth, compete in a bacon eating contest, ride a bacon seesaw, and take home a commemorative ceramic tasting glass.

Local restaurants will be serving up original savory dishes and desserts, each trying to earn the Best Dish award voted on by a panel of judges and attendees. Enjoy bacon-greatness from local Seattle restaurants including The Flying Kolache and many more. Satisfy your adventurous foodie palate with dishes like maple bacon donuts, bacon tomato grilled cheese, bacon wrapped jalapeño peppers, and chocolate bacon cupcakes. Taste over 100+ beers and ciders from breweries like Bosk Brew Works, Pyramid Brewery and Alehouse, Mazama Brewing and Wild Ride Brewing. Vote for your favorite restaurant and brewery using the Bacon and Beer Classic app and the winners will be crowned at the end of the day.

As always, tickets are all-inclusive, which means guests can sample bacon and beer throughout the field and concourse without ever taking out their wallets. Choose from three ticket types: General Admission, Power Hour, or VIP. General Admission tickets begin at $49 and will increase based on time and availability. There will be two sessions, afternoon from 12pm-4pm (GA only from 1pm-4pm) and evening from 6pm-10pm (GA only from 7pm-10pm). VIP and Power Hour ticket holders will enter T-Mobile Park an hour early. VIP tickets give guests access to the VIP dugouts and warning track, a pork belly tasting, 3 exclusive beers and specialty VIP dishes not located in GA, 1 specialty cocktail, a build-your-own swag bag ($50 value), and a walk-the-bases experience.
