Libations and live entertainment returns to Palmdale, CA, on June 20 with the fourth annual High Desert Beer and Wine Festival.
There is unlimited craft beer and wines, music at the Palmdale Amphitheater. Unlike most other beer and wine festivals, this one is at night. GA entrry time is 6 p.m., and VIP is 7 p.m. That’s a good idea, too, because otherwise it would be really hot in the daytime. The price of GA tickets are $67.77, VIP is $103 and a VIP 4-pack is $387.54 that includes parking but, of course, don’t drink and drive.

“With the festival only a few weeks away now, we’re hugely gratified by the outpouring (!) of support from our local and regional businesses,” said Mayor Eric Ohlsen. “With a stacked lineup of beer and wine, food and beverage options, music and activities, we’re expecting the best Festival ever. We are excited to welcome the community and visitors to celebrate right here in Palmdale while supporting the businesses, makers and partners that help our region thrive.”
