The NINTH Annual DeLand Craft Beer Festival returned to Historic Downtown DeLand on February 10, 2018! Featuring over 300 beers and over 75 breweries, DeLand Beer Festival Events included pint nights, special bottle releases, rare and limited draft releases, art and music events, beer dinners and brunches, beer tastings, meet the brewer events, educational sessions, a homebrew competition and the signature event, DeLand Beer Festival.
This year’s Volusia Beer Week Premier Events include the #DrinkVolusia Bus Tour, Brews and Bowties, BrewCon 2018, and DeLand Beer Festival. These events started as a way to benefit our community and they continue to support the community that supports us. One hundred percent of the proceeds from these Premier Events go to support the Craft Beverage Community in Volusia County and MainStreet DeLand Association, a 501c3 charity, to support their efforts dedicated to supporting and enhancing the economic development of Historic Downtown DeLand while protecting and promoting DeLand’s historic heritage.
For me, this is one of the funniest little slice-of-life things to do in Florida – go to one of my favorite little towns in Florida and watch people dress up their dogs and parade them down Main Street. It's always fascinating and fun. To me it looks like everything a small town should do for fun. Everyone should check this out in DeLand at least once.
Mardi Gras on Main Street is presented by the Krewe of Amalee and takes place in beautiful Downtown DeLand. Celebrating more than 15 years of parading pups.
