Rancho BEERnardo Festival

The BEERnardo Festival is an annual event, organized by the Rancho Bernardo Sunrise Rotary Club. It has become a premier destination beer fest that combines the best of San Diego’s North County friendliness and charm in Rancho Bernardo with larger neighboring attractions such as the San Diego Zoo’s Safari Park. Lots more food choices AND we're adding other spirits such as wine, hard cider/seltzer and kombouchas. More than 30 top rated breweries providing more than 50 of the best rated beers available in Southern California. Music by Coyote Rebel will entertain along with sumptuous food choices and fun games. Hotels nearby range from convenient comfort to the posh Rancho Bernardo Inn with its 18-hole championship golf course, luxury spa, and distinctive restaurants, truly making the trek to taste worthwhile. There is an Early VIP admission available starting at 1 pm that includes an even more extensive beer and food pairing. Rancho Bernardo Sunrise Rotary Club hosts the annual event as its main fundraiser, helping to improve lives and bring positive, lasting change to local communities and the world at large. Through the event's efforts to bring the best-of-the-best to the festival, the Club supports special projects, scholarships, food banks, and other worthy causes. Internationally, this club provides humanitarian aid to Afghanistan and Ukraine as well as education for AIDS orphans in South Africa, and free cleft lip/palate surgeries in Baja, Mexico.
