More than 1,000 guests are expected to raise their tasting glasses at the annual BEERnardo Festival on Saturday, October 3, 2026.
This is one of North County's premier craft beverage festivals. Hosted by the Rancho Bernardo Sunrise Rotary Club, the event has earned a loyal following by combining outstanding breweries, wineries, spirits, food, and live entertainment in the relaxed, welcoming setting of Webb Lake Park, located at 16826 Bernardo Center Drive, San Diego, CA 92128. Admission is from 1-2 PM VIPs and 2-5 PM for general admittance.
The festival features more than 35 award-winning breweries, wineries, and craft beverage makers, including producers of vodka, hard ciders, seltzers, kombucha, and creative non-alcoholic mocktails. Guests will also enjoy a variety of delicious food vendors, interactive games, and live entertainment from local favorite The Rubber Band, Westwood's own garage dad-band.
For those looking to enhance the experience, VIP Early Admission begins at 1:00 p.m., offering an exclusive extra hour of select tastings, shorter lines, and additional VIP benefits before general admission.
While BEERnardo is known for bringing together friends, neighbors, and craft beverage enthusiasts, its other success is measured by the difference made in the community. Every ticket purchased and every sponsorship helps fund and deliver grants that truly will impact and improve lives.
Since its inception, BEERnardo has generated approximately $1.2 million to support programs benefiting seniors, veterans, youth, individuals with disabilities, and underserved members of the community. BEERnardo continues to prove that a great festival can do more than bring people together—it can change lives, one glass at a time and beyond a single afternoon of celebration.
