Fernandina Beach, Fla. (August 1, 2024) —On Saturday, October 5th, 2024, the fourth annual Island Hop Craft Beer Fest will be held at Central Park in Fernandina Beach on Amelia Island with First Love Brewing as the Presenting Sponsor and IQ Fiber as the Corporate Sponsor. Proceeds from the event will support Fernandina Beach Main Street, whose mission is to promote economic vitality and historic preservation in the Fernandina Beach business district. This event is a beer, wine, and spirits tasting that will be limited in the number of attendees to ensure a great experience.  The community is encouraged to visit www.islandhopcraftbeerfest.com for tickets.


A popular local band, the Honey Badgers, will perform throughout the day. A Marketplace will feature local and regional businesses with various items for sale. With food trucks, activities for the kids, and a dog relief and cooling station, the Island Hop Craft Beer Fest is an event the whole family can enjoy.
