Visitor Reviews

The rove.me team chatted with people who attended the Orlando Beer Festival in past years. We asked them about how the festival was organized, how comfortable it was, and their overall impressions. We also wanted to know if they’d recommend visiting the Orlando Beer Festival.

"The festival was a great spot with a large space and plenty of room to move around. I really enjoyed the bounce house and activities for adults to do. Having a stage and live music is always a plus. There were a good number of vendors on site, so you could try all different beers," says Danielle Yu, a local from Orlando who attended the festival in 2023 with her fiancé and friends. Danielle was lucky to win tickets to the event but noted that this year there weren't enough vendors and non-alcoholic drinks for hydration compared to previous years. That didn’t spoil her impressions: "I would definitely recommend this festival for beer lovers. It's a great way to taste and sample beers you might not have heard of before. It's always best to go with friends and have a good time overall."
