Great Pumpkin Beer Festival

  • Seattle Cider Summit South Lake Union Discovery Center Lawn, 101 Westlake Ave N. Seattle, WA 98109 (map)

The 21st Annual Great Pumpkin Beer Festival returns to our original Capitol Hill pub this October! Join us at the place it all started, where 60+ pumpkin and seasonal beers (plus a couple of surprises) from near and far will be poured!

New to the Great Pumpkin Beer Festival? Each night, we have a giant, several-hundred-pound pumpkin that is scooped, scorched, filled with pumpkin beer, sealed, conditioned, and then tapped at the fest for all to enjoy. Beyond the beers, this year’s GPBF offers a costume contest, live music, plenty of food options, a pumpkin pie-eating contest, and so much more. Tickets sell out every year, so grab yours before they disappear!

Friday, October 3 – Saturday, October 4, 2025
4pm-10pm both days.
