Seven Fields beer, wine & music festival returns
Seven Fields hosts an adult-only event each year following its family-friendly community carnival.
The seventh annual Beer & Wine Music Festival runs from 5 to 9 p.m. Saturday, July 12, at Seven Fields Town Park.
The time was moved up by two hours to help beat summer heat, Seven Fields borough manager Thomas Smith said.
The 21-and-over event includes 15 beer and wine vendors, and food from Cool Beans taco truck, Chubby’s Pizza Wagon and Ambridge Italian Villa food truck.
Other communities tend to provide samples, but this event differs in that it allow vendors to sell a long pour or full glass of their products, according to Smith.
He said the festival got its start when borough council wanted to offer an event each summer month in Seven Fields. The Beer, Wine & Music Festival was born after council members were inspired by similar events in the area.
The event has grown in popularity, Smith said, drawing more than 500 attendees each year.
This year’s fest will feature the band Street Level, which has performed at Seven Fields Oktoberfest.
“We always try to mix up entertainment from year to year to add variety and pick bands that draw people in,” Smith said. “It’s going to be a nice day.”
Admission is $10 online through Friday, and $15 (cash only) at the door. All proceeds will help fund next year’s festival.
Children and pets are not permitted.
