Enjoy Glass Blowing And Craft Beer At This Unique Festival In Georgia

There are so many great festivals in Georgia that it feels like you could practically visit one each weekend and fill up your entire year. The Peach State is awash in wonderful events, whether you're looking to celebrate the season or enjoy local specialties like Macon's cherry blossoms or Swainsboro's pine trees. One of our favorite spring festivals in the state is the Americus Hot Glass and Craft Beer Festival. The festival focuses on the magical art of glass blowing and the burgeoning popularity of craft beer. This year's event will be held on Saturday, April 8, 2023 in downtown Americus, Georgia.

This is one of the biggest events of the year in Americus and it's sure to be a blast. This year is the fourth time the event's been held.

The family-friendly festival features live music from local performers.

Of course, the craft brews are a big draw for many! More than 20 regional breweries will be present, each with three or four beers on hand for sampling. A tasting ticket will grant you general admission to the festival, plus 12 tastings.

If you're not planning on drinking, general admission tickets are available for purchase. Kids under the age of 17 get in free when accompanied by a paying adult.

There will also be plenty of glass blowers hailing from all over the country. You'll get to see the fascinating art in action at glass blowing demonstrations.

Make sure to stop by the vendor area afterwards! You can pick up Americus-themed goodies and crafted glass pieces that make for the perfect souvenir.

If you have any interest in glass blowing or craft brews, this is sure to be a can't-miss festival in Georgia!
