Additional Details

Chouffe Fest, a one-night beer fest, is sweeping the nation, bringing the Chouffe world to gnome-sized life while enjoying our Belgian craft beers. In each market, Chouffe Fest transforms unique event spaces into a gnome-inspired realm using a larger-than-life entranceway, an eight-foot tall gnome throne photo booth and big-scale versions of the classic games checkers, Jenga and Connect Four. Chouffe Fest is artistically curated from top to bottom, introducing new stop-start animation loops in each city based on local landmarks. In addition to these massive projections, there are also stations offering live screen printed posters, on-site letter pressed postcards to write and send, coloring for the young at heart, and a gnome-i-fying caricature artist. Add in a special musical act, a DJ to keep the feet tapping and complimentary food to pair with delicious beers and Chouffe Fest offers an all-inclusive night that will not soon be forgotten. Uber is sponsoring rides for #ChouffeFest! If you are new to Uber, use the promo code CHOUFFEFEST to get $25 off your first ride (excludes TAXI).
