The winter months in New England can feel kind of dreary, but as things start to warm up and we look towards spring, that urge to shed some layers and do something fun with loved ones comes right back. If you’re looking for a fun event to attend in the spring, look no further than the Newport Beer Festival in Rhode Island.
Make plans to attend the festival on April 30th from 2 p.m to 5:30 p.m.

The festival has an exciting new location at the gorgeous Fort Adams State park. This means there will be lots of space for vendors and attendees to spread out and enjoy the fresh air and stunning views of the water.

There will be lots of good food to help soak up some of that beer as well! Think barbecue, and tons of it.
