About the Event: Beer Prom- Lydia Place and Kulshan Brewing
Six Bellingham breweries have asked other breweries to be their "dates" to our 80s themed Beer Prom. Together, they're brewing 80s inspired collaboration beers and we're serving them all at Beer Prom! All proceeds will be supporting Lydia Place, a non-profit helping disrupt the cycle of homelessness in Bellingham and promoting sustained independence for current and future generations.
This year's theme is Back to the Future's Enchantment Under The Sea. Wear your favorite 80s...er 50s fashion and drink one of a kind collaboration beers! Your future prom night includes a costume contest, a Royal Beer Court, unforgettable dance moves, a photo booth, raffle prizes, food trucks, and live music by Blindfate.
2019 Beer Prom Participating Breweries:
