Beer City Half™
The day starts with The Beer City Half at ShoreLine Aquatic Park for a run around the park and up the LA River Trail. Beer City Festival includes a half marathon, 10k, and 5k distances. See a part of Long Beach you didn't know existed. The Beer Stroll is a 1-mile walk around ShoreLine Aquatic Park.
The post-race refreshment will introduce you to some of Long Beach's and California's best brewers. What better place to DRINK LOCAL than Long Beach?
All runners receive a shirt, a Key to Beer City finisher's medal, and a custom tasting glass.
Beat the Beast
Beat the Beast is our special beer mile where you race others and one of our Beer City Beasts. Drink 4 12-oz beers while running a mile. If the Beast catches you, you're out of the race. Better move quickly!
Beat the Beast takes place at Shoreline Park, starting at 11am.
Shindig
Once the running and Beast-beating is done, Beer City Festival roars on. Join us for SHINDIG, a Beer City party with music, food trucks, and games. Your ticket covers your first beer and is available at checkout when you register.
The Shindig is Beer City HQ for the afternoon.
