If you purchased your ticket online, your Saffire profile will store all ticket information.

All ticket sales are final. No refunds.
We no longer offer designated driver tickets, but the festival includes a wide range of non-alcoholic options and plenty to enjoy without drinking — including live music, art installations, food trucks, and more.
Yeah, that’s what we thought too. Unfortunately, the Michigan Liquor Control Commission has not clearly defined the rule in this regard, so for now, we still have to collect tickets for samples. You get 15 drink tickets with your festival ticket. Additional drink tickets are available for purchase at the festival as well.
Where is the festival held?
GENERAL INFORMATION

Festival hours run from 3 PM to 10 PM on Saturday, August 29, 2026, with Sandbox “VIP” and Lakeshore Brewers Guild Enthusiast Members entering early at 2 PM.
Absolutely! The vessel MUST be empty when you enter the event. This includes Camelbacks. NO exceptions. There are water stations located throughout the event grounds.
You can email us at [email protected] or on our Facebook or Instagram page. Please remember that during the week of the event, we are at at the festival grounds up to 14 hours a day building the event, so there will be delays in getting a response.
No, the Burning Foot site plan is not built to handle pop-up tents. You are more than welcome to set them up outside the event space on the beach and enter and exit the festival grounds as you wish.
Burning Foot is an open-air event, so if there is a chance of rain, please bring proper coverage. We also have a check-in area setup if you want to avoid carrying your items around with you.
Yes, but that is the only outside food allowed into the festival grounds.
Event parking is located at The Mart Dock just northeast of Heritage Landing (560 Mart St Muskegon 49440)
YES! We will have Food Trucks to choose from, plus VIP has its own food options as well. View our Food Truck vendors here.
YES! Part of Burning Foot’s culture is to have some killer music. We will always have a blend of local, regional, and national headliners, and are always looking for ways to grow our music offerings. If you are interested in performing at Burning Foot, please fill out the form on our Music/Bands Page.
A list of breweries will be in the passport book you receive at entry with your drink tickets. Or you can visit our list online, here.
YES! We will have some Seltzer and Gluten-free beer options at the festival. Your program will be marked with Seltzer and Gluten-Free options. We are, however, a beer festival so the mass majority of offerings will be delicious (and gluten-filled) craft beer.
Sign up to become an Enthusiast Member and get early entry into Burning Foot Beer Festival! Sign up to enter festival grounds at 2pm and get first access to breweries, food, and more. Please note: You will still need to purchase a Burning Foot ticket to enter.
As any great festival goes, we need a strong team of dedicated volunteers to make it happen. Visit our Volunteer Page to sign up! Every volunteer will receive 1 ticket to Burning Foot (and all items that come with the ticket), a volunteer T-Shirt, and an exclusive invitation to our Volunteer and Vendor Appreciation Party that will take place on the Friday before the event.
YES! Clear bags only though!
camping
Campers are not guaranteed a parking space but set up for tents and trailers starts at 9:00 am. Based on that time, there are typically plenty of spaces available. You will have to pay for parking. The cost is $10 a day, $20 if you stay overnight, or $20 for the season. All parking passes can be purchased through the city-owned pay stations.
Tent and RV/Trailer sites can check-in starting at 9:00 AM the morning of the event (August 23rd). There will be a check-in at both the Tent camping area entrance and also the RV/Trailer camping entrance. At check-in, you will receive your site number and your camping wristbands.
Sites must be torn down by 10-10:30 am on Sunday, August 24th. Please clean up your entire site space (don’t leave trash behind).
No. We do not allow individual campfires. There will be two community-style fire pits at the tent camping area. First come, first serve.
Yes! You are allowed to bring in food and a cooler for your space.
