There Is A Massive Beer, Bacon, And Chocolate Festival Headed To Mississippi In March

The most delicious event of the year, the Gulf Coast Beer and Bacon Festival, is quickly approaching, and you don’t want to miss it. Since its inception, it’s only gotten bigger, better, and tastier. More specifically, it’s grown to include chocolate, in addition to beer and bacon.

The 2022 Gulf Coast Beer and Bacon Festival is slated to take place on March 5 from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. at the Hollywood Warehouse in Gulfport.

Decorated with famous movie sets and props, the 86,000-square-foot warehouse is a must-visit in its own right.

Of course, it gets even better during the fest, when dozens of local eateries set up shop within its walls.

This year’s event will have more than 30 breweries and restaurants on hand, offering samples of beer, bacon, and chocolate.

It should come as no surprise that this is a popular event. In fact, it’s touted as “one of the Gulf Coast's favorite fests.”

In 2021, more than 500 people attended. This year’s fest is expected to attract even more people, and you should be one of them. Keep in mind, though, you must be 21 or older to attend.

Tickets are $50 per person and include food tastings and tasting cups. VIP tickets, which allow for early entry, are $75 per person.

Lastly, it should be noted that all money raised from the fest will be donated to Mississippi Heroes, a non-profit whose mission it is to celebrate everyday heroes like caregivers.
