WHEN: LEAP DAY! FeBREWary 29th from 1.30 pm until 4.30 pm. VIP only hour from 12.30-1.30 pm. General Admission 1.30pm-4.30pm.
WHAT: Take a trip around the Eastern Shore without leaving the Ocean City Convention Center. Participants will be able to talk with brewery representatives from local breweries around the region. Some breweries are making special beers just for FeBREWary and these beers will be available during our Love on Tap. We have only local craft beer with Maryland breweries and breweries from across the Shore. With live music, unlimited free tastings, a complimentary commemorative pint glass for the first 1250 participants, and a chance to talk to the local brewers about their beer.
WHERE: The Ocean City Convention Center with a spectacular bay view. This is not your normal convention center festival. This room has wall to wall, ceiling to floor glass looking out over Assawoman Bay. There is a big area outside where you can still listen to the live music and enjoy the weather - if its good. You can also play games - corn hole and more.
We will turn this festival into a tour of the Eastern Shore with scenes and information on all the cool things to do here on the Shore. Sheltered from any harsh FeBREWary weather, but with the possibility to step outside to enjoy the winter sunshine and play games, this venue has the style and the space to show off Eastern Shore craft beer to its full advantage. Whatever the weather, bring your loved one or friend, or bring lots of them! This is an event you won't want to miss.
