The Hop Jam Beer & Music Festival 2018

Mar 25, 2018 | HANSON

 
We’re excited to announce the 5th annual Hop Jam Beer & Music Festival will take place on Sunday 20th May 2018!
 
The festival will again take place at the heart of the Tulsa Arts District, and will introduce an increasingly diverse and impressive list of breweries from Oklahoma, across the US, and around the world, alongside a free All-Ages concert with a robust music lineup, to be announced. The 8-block footprint includes craft beer and all-ages areas, featuring two stages. The festival has something for guests of all ages and interests, with food trucks, family activities, national music acts, access to many local restaurants and amenities, and of course more great craft beer.
 
It’s hard to believe we are about to host our fifth Hop Jam festival but it is clear to see that the craft beer community is here to stay and we are glad to have been a part of the revival we have seen here in Oklahoma.
 
The Craft beer portion of the event will feature more than 75 breweries from 14 states and 5 countries including our own Hanson Brothes Beer alongside with other Oklahoma favorites Marshall, COOP and American Solera, plus leading US craft brewers Dogfish Head, Jolly Pumpkin, Destihl and Evil Twin, and international brewers including Dieu du Ciel, Omnipollo and many more. Some of our special guest brewers will also take part in the Hop Talks panels, where you will get to hear from them directly about their philosophy and vision.

We will be announcing our full music lineup shortly, and will again feature an all-ages free concert on 2 stages, and will include nationally recognized artists and the Awesome Music Opening Band Contest winner, who will open the show. Runners up in the statewide contest will perform on the Park Stage. If you are an Oklahoma artist and you would like to participate, you can submit your music at 
Tulsaworld.com/AwesomeMusicContest.
 
We’re proud to have supported the Community Food Bank Of Eastern Oklahoma through the raffle of a one-of-a-kind Hop Guitar made each year especially for the event. To date, the raffle has raised funds to provide 140,000 meals. Raffle tickets for this year’s guitar are available now at TheHopJam.com, or onsite at the Festival.
 
Tickets for the festival are available online starting today, with a variety of offerings from beer tasting to VIP options including early entry, access to the Hop Talks panels and a special VIP lounge offering food and select craft beers. Also on offer is a Music VIP ticket for discerning music fans, which features a private viewing platform, indoor amenities, food and select craft beers.

You got us all excited with this much anticipated announcement and then left out the only part of the announcement that matters.

Last year was special for Hanson. I don't think or expect them to play this year.

For those who have been to HopJam before, what part of HOP JAM do you recommend if not all of it? Do you prefer the Music VIP lounge or heading there an hour early for unlimited beer tasting? Any recess for first time HOPJAMMERS? :)

I’d be interested in this too. And is there a separate VIP hop jam ticket area?
