SUMMARY:Hickory Hops Craft Beer & Music Festival
DESCRIPTION:Event: \nWe are celebrating our 22nd Annual Hickory Hops Craft Beer & Music Festival on Saturday\, April 11\, 2026\, from 1pm-6pm at the parking lot of Lowes Foods City Park in Downtown Hickory. \nHickory Hops is an annual Craft Beer & Music festival in Downtown Hickory. Over 50 craft breweries participate in this sampling event. \nAll Tasting Tickets include a tasting glass that will be provided on the day of the event. The regulations of the new social district in Downtown Hickory prohibits the use of glass serving containers\, so the tasting glasses will be hard plastic. \nThis festival offers plenty for everyone\, from inexperienced beer novices to hardened beer fest veterans anxious for something unusual. \n𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐟𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐚𝐥 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐜𝐞 𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐧 𝐨𝐫 𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐞.
