Nebraska West Fest is the Panhandle’s signature celebration of craft beverage culture. Bringing together breweries, cideries, distilleries, and craft makers from across the region for one unforgettable afternoon. Hosted inside the beautiful greenhouse at PapaMoon HQ, this event offers a warm, welcoming space to explore new flavors and connect with the incredible artisans shaping Nebraska’s craft scene.
Join us on March 21, 2026, from 12:00–4:00 PM for a laid-back, family-friendly festival designed for both craft enthusiasts and casual samplers alike. With the purchase of a tasting ticket, adults can enjoy unlimited samples of beer, cider, and spirits, discovering everything from small-batch releases to award-winning local favorites
But Nebraska West Fest is more than a tasting event, it’s a community experience. Wander through vendor booths featuring local makers, grab a bite from food trucks, hang out with live activities, and let the kids enjoy their own dedicated fun zone. Whether you’re exploring with friends, bringing the whole family, or traveling in from across the region, there’s something for everyone under one roof
At its heart, Nebraska West Fest is a chance to support local producers, showcase the best of the Panhandle, and come together for a uniquely Nebraska celebration of flavor, craft, and community
