Tales & Ales Brewfest

Tales & Ales Brewfest 2026
Get your crew together and save the date for a fun night at Fairytale Town on August 22nd!
Local craft breweries from throughout Sacramento and Northern California will be in the park pouring unlimited tastes of their beverages. Enjoy live music on the Mother Goose Stage. Kids will enjoy complimentary root beer floats and hands-on activities in Mr. McGregor’s Garden. There will also be a raffle with exciting prizes.
Want to level up to VIP? You’ll get in at 4PM – an hour earlier than general admission attendees – plus you’ll get to sample an exclusive VIP beer and wine (Silt Wine Co.),  and catered food inside our air conditioned Story Center, which you’ll have access to all evening if you need to cool off.
Local food trucks will be onsite with food and beverages available for sale.
Warm temperatures in the forecast? No problem! Most of Fairytale Town is shaded, plus we’ll have our Bonney Cool Zone misters going.
Tales & Ales is an all-ages fundraiser with proceeds supporting Fairytale Town’s education programs and park improvements.
