Boulevardia Announces Ticket Packages

Boulevardia has announced their ticket packages for this year’s festival.  From $15 all the way up to $1,000, the festival is affordable for every budget.

It seems much more organized this year.  Taps & Tastes was a bit of a disaster, but moving from the bridge will be a great step.  Also, last year they sold well over the listed amount of tickets (2,500) and even let people in without tickets.  This year, it will be limited to 1,800 tickets total with 300 being VIP.  I will more than likely purchase a VIP ticket to avoid the rush of a huge crowd and get to the good beers before they are gone.  It was a great experience, last year, and well worth the money for the quality of vendors.  Tickets will be on sale in March and will sell out quickly.

Here’s a breakdown of the tickets and also some photos we took from last year’s Boulevardia.

General Admission: $15 per single-day pass to the festival grounds (Friday, Saturday or Sunday). Children 12 and under are free.
