Philadelphia, PA – After a sold out inaugural year, Evil Genius Beer Company and Fishtown District are calling all beer fans back to the neighborhood for the Second Annual Fishtown Beer Festival. The festival will return to its home on the 1700 block of Front Street on Saturday, June 20th, from 12:00pm to 4:00pm, bringing together the city’s premier craft breweries for a high-energy summer block party.  Building on the success of last year’s debut, the 2026 festival is expanding its footprint. This year, over 20 of the region’s premier breweries will convene to showcase their work, with each brewery pouring two distinct selections. The event will feature nearly 40 different beers ranging from fan-favorite, signature offerings to rare limited-editions and hidden gems ensuring that there is a pour for every palate. Early Bird tickets sold out in a matter of days but General Admission tickets are available at Evil Genius’ website.

“This festival is our love letter to Philly’s brewing scene and the neighborhood that helped make us who we are today,” said Trevor Hayward, co-founder of Evil Genius. “Fishtown has become one of the top beer destinations in the country, and after seeing the community response last year, we knew we had to go even bigger. It’s about more than just the beer; it’s about celebrating the culture of our home neighborhood.”
