Guests can expect to choose from 150 wines, beers and ciders at the event, but the exact line up has yet to be announced. It will also include live music and Atlanta’s DJ Q-Tip.

Plus, food trucks and local restaurants will sell dishes to keep guests' hunger at bay. Free bottled water will also be offered, but designated driver tickets are not. Attendees will also be able to take home a souvenir cup from the event.

And while the 21 and up fest is set to take place at Brookhaven Park, babies, children and pets are not allowed to enter.

The park is conveniently located across the street from the Brookhaven MARTA station. While parking is available at the transit facility, guests are encouraged to take a ride share service like Uber or Lyft. Parking in neighborhood streets is prohibited and those who leave their vehicles there will be towed.

Spiral Entertainment hosts the event. The company was founded in 1997 and serves as one of Atlanta’s main producers of festivals and social events. Aside from the Brookhaven Beer Fest, Sprial Entertainment also hosts the St. Patrick's Day themed Lucky Fest, Oyster Fest, and a Halloween costume party called Spiralween.
