Spring Sessions of Toronto's Festival of Beer

returns to Fork York: Garrison Common

May Two Four Weekend 

The fourth annual Spring Sessions of Toronto's most iconic beer festival, Toronto's Festival of Beer, comes home to its roots on the May long weekend, Saturday, May 20 and Sunday, May 21, at the historic Fort York: Garrison Common (250 Fort York Boulevard). New for this year, the festival is introducing Campfire Sessions, which features live acoustic performances by the Juno award winning trio, Elliott BROOD on May 20 and east-coast bred, Toronto-based rockers The Trews, on May 21.

"Spring Sessions of Toronto's Festival of Beer is going to be an incredible time to stay in the city," said Les Murray, President of Beerlicious Inc., "We have Canadian rockers Elliott BROOD and The Trews headlining our festival, along with a fantastic selection of brews to sample and a great roster of local restaurants and food trucks for people to enjoy. We're also bringing back the cottage in the city theme this year, with fire pits, outdoor games and lawn chairs to tie the theme together - you don't want to miss it!"  

Building on last year's success, Spring Sessions of Toronto's Festival of Beer will celebrate the cottage theme again this May long weekend:  with more games, entertainment, BBQ and beer than ever before. To add to the excitement, the festival will have fire pits on site that are scheduled to ignite during the Campfire Sessions while marshmallows will be handed out to attendees to create an unforgettable and delicious experience. 

 Tickets to Spring Sessions of Toronto's Festival of Beer are on sale now at www.beerfestival.ca. Earlybird tickets start at $30, while regular price tickets start at $35. All tickets include a commemorative festival sampling mug and five sampling tokens.
