Make plans for Saturday, March 26th, 2016 to attend the 4th Annual Boulder City Beerfest to be held at Wilbur Square Park in the heart of historic Boulder City, Nevada. This is a well known location that has many large special events during the year. The 5th Annual BCBF is scheduled for March 25th, 2017! This year's "BCBF" is planned for 2000 beer lovers and guests to enjoy a great variety of craft beers from 30 brewery tents, menu items from 8 food trucks, and "beer centric" specialty vendors all on site to make this a fantastic day! Once again, Boulder Dam Brewing Company is the official host brewery! The BCBF will run from 1pm until 7pm. At the Admission Tent you'll receive an ID wristband and BCBF souvenir glass for unlimited samples of all the great beers available! The event is open to the public to visit the vendor tents and food trucks, but you'll need the official wristband and glass to enjoy the beers. Visit our Facebook page and Like us to receive BCBF news and updates! Our goal is to produce another first rate beer festival in Nevada on the calendar of events that happen in Boulder City! We also want to help raise funds for a worthy organization whose efforts benefit the overall community. Operation Homefront provides emergency financial aid and other assistance to the families, service members and wounded warriors of the United States Armed Forces. More than 2,500 volunteers help nationwide with an impressive 93% of all donations directly benefiting thousands of military families since 2002.
Wilbur Square Park is the largest and most popular park in downtown Boulder City, Nevada. Located on Colorado Street and bordered by Nevada Way and Utah Street, Wilbur Square Park was established in the early 1930's in conjunction with the Boulder (Hoover) Dam project as a recreational area for construction workers and their families.
Above is the map showing the festival layout. The Beer tents are the Yellow squares, the Vendor tents are Green, and the Food trucks are Red. All attendees wanting to sample the beers will need to get their ID wristband and the official BCBF beer glass at the Admission tent (A), shown as the White rectangle on the left of the park. The home brewing demonstrations (HBD) are in the center of the park, and the live music stage (S) is on the right side of the park.
Many large events are held in the park annually so there's plenty of parking in the surrounding areas. This is considered Boulder City's central park and is very easy to find. From the Boulder Dam Brewery, the park is just around the corner! To see a map with directions, click here: Wilbur Square Park
This year's BCBF will feature 30 tents from local, regional and national breweries!
As they confirm, their logos will be added here with their location in the park.

8 of the valley's favorite food trucks will be at the top of the park ready to serve you their best menu options all day. Located among the brewery tents will be the specialty vendors each bringing unique "beer centric" items to add to the fun of the festival! As we confirm the participants, their logos will be added here so you can find them in the park.
