For our 5th year we’re going Beyond Beer and Bourbon

The 2026 Beyond Beer & Bourbon Fest presented by Blue Ribbon Products will be held on Saturday, May 30 from 12:00 – 5:00 PM outdoors at the all-new Hollywood Casino Joliet.

This outdoor event is going to be an elevated experience featuring a sampling of over 100 different craft beers, Bourbons and BEYOND that, we’re adding everything else to make sure everyone in your party has something to choose from! You can look forward to wine, tequila, vodka, seltzers and other ready-to-drink cocktails in the mix.

There will be incredible local musicians across two stages, food trucks, raffles, vendors, games and so much more. This year, we’re going to be in the parking lot right next to the brand new Hollywood Casino Joliet giving you easy access to their elevated food options and a chance to explore the new casino.

Let’s not forget why we’re coming together. Will-Grundy Habitat is actively addressing the lack of affordable housing by partnering with military service members, their families, and veterans to help build and repair affordable housing. Participating in this weekend of celebration is a way to help raise funds that directly support our Veteran’s Build programs and ensures we’re able to help those who have given so much the dignity of living in a safe, stable home.
