Frost Fest Returns: Winter Craft Beer Festival Happening This Weekend

Frost Fest, the winter craft beer festival, is back this weekend!

After a three-year hiatus, the festival returns with even more breweries and vendors than ever.

Hosted by Fayetteville’s own Fossil Cove Brewing Co., this annual festival features an extensive selection of microbrews and craft beer that will quench your thirst and warm your spirit.

The festival will be held on February 4, Saturday, at the Washington County Fairgrounds, with various activities and entertainment.

Get ready to experience the musical thrills of Nick Shoulders & OK Crawdad alongside up-and-coming local acts The Phlegms and Vintage Pistol – all performing live at the festival!

On the day of the festival, Ashley Nielsen – a renowned artist from Fayetteville – will be present in the big tent to showcase her live art performance. Take advantage of this unique opportunity to experience art come alive right before your eyes!

Attendees will want to attend the beer-tasting portion of this event, providing a chance for them to savor craft beers from each brewery. Craft beer enthusiasts partake in an immersive and interactive experience where breweries offer their unique libations to sample.

Along with live music and beer tastings, Frost Fest offers delectable treats from numerous food trucks. In addition to an excellent time for all, proceeds from the festival will be used to help fund non-profits in Northwest Arkansas.

By launching Frost Fest in 2016, Fossil Cove provided the perfect opportunity to recognize regional breweries and give back to the community by donating a portion of the event’s proceeds to local organizations.

This year, attendees look forward to another fantastic experience as Frost Fest expands and allows everyone an enjoyable evening filled with craft beer tasting and live music — all for a good cause!

Tickets and sampling glasses are now available for purchase online here. Attendees must be 21 and over. Join us as we celebrate the return of Frost Fest and experience the winter craft beer festival you will want to attend!
