Great American Beer Festival
Location of the Great American Beer Festival in the United States.
The Great American Beer Festival (GABF) is an annual beer festival hosted by the Brewers Association, held in Denver, Colorado. Typically held in late September or early October, the event used to be held at Denver's Colorado Convention Center, but despite community pushback, it has moved outdoors to Levitt Pavillion for 2026. Established in 1982, it is the largest ticketed beer festival in the U.S. and one of the largest in the world.
