The second annual Rocktoberfest is a day-long celebration of the twin pillars of American civilization - as in, beer and rock 'n' roll.
It takes place Friday, October 16, from 5:30 to 11 p.m. at the Las Olas Riverfront.
More than two dozen breweries will pour suds, along with nibbles from local eateries including America's Backyard and Riverfront Pizza.
The Pretty Faces, Hep Cat Boo Daddies, Stonefox and others will provide the
music. All that will cost you $20 prepaid online or $25 at the door.
But if you really want to hang with the swells, check out New Times'
own VIP Lounge, where for $40 you can make like a washed-up ex-athlete
crashing the velvet ropes at some snobby South Beach club, snort up
free wine, booze and food, puff away on a hookah, and get treated as if
you really were a Big Fucking Deal.
For details and those all-important tickets, go here. And start practicing your bladder control now.
Keep New Times Broward-Palm Beach Free... Since we started New Times Broward-Palm Beach, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of South Florida, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering South Florida with no paywalls.
