SeaWorld is serving up its annual Craft Beer Festival with access to more than 100 crafts brews! Modified to allow guests to safely visit the park with limited capacity, they can roam SeaWorld’s expansive grounds, sample an unbeatable mix of domestic and local Florida favorites, and savor more than 20 food items expertly paired to preferred brews.

Craft Beer Festival at SeaWorld Orlando will take place Saturdays and Sundays from 11:30 a.m. to close through September 20. Starting on August 28, Fridays will also be added to the festival, with booths opening at 3 p.m.

UPDATE: The Craft Beer Festival has been extended through November 1, 2020!

This delicious festival will feature food and beverage locations that are appropriately spaced throughout the park to encourage physical distancing, modified food and beverage serving procedures, expanded areas of seating, and the ability to offer touchless transactions at all festival locations. Guests can experience all that the Craft Beer Festival has to offer, and save money, by purchasing a Craft Beer Festival Tasting Lanyard valid at 18 stations located throughout the park. Guests with unused punches from the earlier Seven Seas Festival this spring can use them for this event.

“We couldn’t be happier to host our annual Craft Beer Festival, modified to reflect enhanced health and safety protocols, including limited capacity, to give guests the chance to delight their senses,” said SeaWorld Orlando Park President Kyle Miller. “By spreading the festival booths out across the entire park, guests can safely enjoy all of the amazing beer and beer-inspired food, along with our award-winning attractions, while maintaining proper physical distancing.”

All guests with existing tickets, Fun Cards, or Annual Passes must make a reservation online for the day they want to visit. Guests are encouraged to make reservations early as reservations are required and limited to manage capacity.
