Dubbed as the biggest party in Harlingen, Brews & Tunes Beer Fest will kick off this Saturday.

The beer fest will be held from 6 to 10 p.m. at the Harlingen Baseball Field, located at 1216 Fair Park Blvd.

This is the second year the festival returns as the city first announced its inception in May 2023.

“We hope this will be an annual event,” Mayor Norma Sepulveda said then during a press conference at the Hilton Garden Inn. “Exciting things are happening right here in the city of Harlingen.”

Louie The Singer, whose music represents his Texan and Mexican roots while bringing something fresh to the country music scene, will be performing from 8:30 to 10 p.m.

In addition to live music, there will also be food vendors and a wide selection of craft beers from more than 20 Texas breweries.

General admission tickets are $25.
