Every once in a while, everyone could use a getaway. When life gets busy, heading someone exclusively in the name of fun and adventure can be an extra refreshing experience. That’s when a trip to Orlando, Florida deserves to be on your calendar. Year-round, Orlando offers up a plethora of options for fun and visits to attractions that are truly one-of-a-kind. Whether you’re a nature lover, someone who can’t wait to dine and shop their way through a stay, or you have a soft spot of world-class theme parks, you’ll find Orlando has it all waiting for you to enjoy and more. While Disney World and Universal Studios often top traveler’s must-visit lists during their ventures to Orlando, SeaWorld sits at the top of many itineraries too with good reason. While the marine life, shows, rides, and attractions here are sure to thrill, those who are heading this way in 2023 have even more to look forward to.
SeaWorld Orlando is known and loved for its many annual festivals and in 2023, the park is proud to present the return of the Sea World Beer Festival. This event rolls around toward the end of summer into fall and adds some much-deserved flavor into the SeaWorld experience for those who are 21 and up. It’s a fun and delicious way to make even more of your park visit whether you’re just here for an afternoon or returning a time or two this summer.

If you’re a craft beer enthusiast, this is a SeaWorld festival you simply don’t want to miss out on. Once again, the park will be serving up an incredible experience for guests with access to more than 100 craft brews on-site. The festival will also feature cocktails, seltzers, and wines to taste and try enhancing the flavor of it all even further. Those who are excited to make the most of the tasting experience will find that they have access to both domestic and local Florida flavors. Of course, it’s hard to imagine a Craft Beer Festival without some fantastic bites to go along with it and when it comes to food items, this festival has you covered.

With festive entertainment available on-site as well, it’s bound to be an unforgettable experience from start to finish.
When You Can Enjoy the Fun
In 2023, the Sea World Beer Festival will be held starting on July 28th and running through September 4th. This is a Friday through Sunday event each week that kicks off at 12:00 pm and runs until an hour before the park closes. Enjoying the Craft Beer Festival is a breeze for visitors during this timeframe as the experience is included in the cost of general park admission. Do be sure to have your ID handy to make sure all goes smoothly and soundly. Once you have your admission ticket in hand, you can choose to participate in the Craft Beer Festival to the extent you’d like. Many guests opt to purchase an additional sampling lanyard to make the most of the flavorful fun. The purchase of one of these sampling lanyards means you can stop by any of the on-site festival stations and get a sample-size taste of the drinks and food available there. This year, an 8-item sampler lanyard will be available starting at $55 while a 12-item sampler lanyard can be purchased for $70.
Enjoy the Additional Dinner Series Option
For the cost of a separate experience ticket, guests who attend the Craft Beer Festival can choose to enjoy the Dinner Series at SeaWorld too. This special event includes a dining experience and limited park access starting at $109 per person up to $129 per person depending on the night you select. Dinner tickets give guests premium access to a four-course meal at the Sharks Underwater Grill. You’ll be seated in the private Reef Room while listening to a guest speaker from the Craft Brew Festival lineup.
