As a reminder this is the only place to purchase tickets for the NH Bacon & Beer Festival. 

The 7th annual NH Bacon & Beer Festival returns Saturday, June 3, 2023, to the Anheuser-Busch fields in Merrimack NH. This year, the High Hopes Foundation celebrates 40 YEARS of providing life-enhancing experiences to New Hampshire's chronically and terminally ill children, so join us in making the dreams of New Hampshire children come alive! Bacon & Beer is our primary fundraiser, celebrating greasy, fatty, savory bacon alongside the endless possibilities of incredible craft brews. Over the past 8 years, this event has raised more than $600,000, helping hundreds of families throughout the state.

Great brews, awesome bacon and BBQ dishes, and live music will make for an incredible day of fun to celebrate the High Hopes Foundation's 40th Anniversary! We all need a little hope for the future, so thank you for your continued support of New Hampshire's kids and come join us this year!
