The San Diego Distillers Guild has announced the return of the San Diego Distillers Guild Fest! Launched in 2019 to hundreds of enthusiastic attendees, the Guild paused last year’s festival as distillers temporarily pivoted to produce sanitizer. Now returning and ready to show off San Diego’s craft distilling community, this year’s festival will take place in a new and larger venue featuring 12,000 square feet of airy indoor and outdoor space overlooking San Diego Bay in downtown San Diego.

Ticket holders will enjoy complimentary spirits and cocktails from nearly twenty craft distilleries, sweet and savory bites from local restaurants, music by jazz ensemble , The Justin Joyce Trio, and beautiful bay views on an expansive, open-air patio.
You’ll also have the rare opportunity to meet and chat with expert distillers who have collectively received hundreds of awards.
