The valley’s weather is predicted to warm up and with the long holiday weather, why not get outside and enjoy a festival in Scottsdale.

On Saturday, more than 500 craft beers will be on tap at the 2023 Arizona Strong Beer Festival at Salt River Fields in Scottsdale.

Over 150 brewers from all across Arizona will be in attendance serving their specialty beer.


“The Strong Beer Festival is about bringing people together to make a cultural statement about craft beer and why we love it,” Rob Fullmer, executive director of the Arizona Craft Brewers Guild, said in a press release.
