RICHMOND, va. (WTVR) –The weather will be gorgeous, the beer will be plenty, tunes will be played, the price is right AND a portion of tickets sales goes to FETCH a Cure, a non-profit organization that helps pets.

To boot, the event will be held on historic Mayo Island.

RVA ROCK$ and FETCH A Cure presents the first beer festival of the year featuring only local craft breweries.

There will be unlimited sampling of more than 20 local craft brews along with live music, a top selection of RVA’s favorite food vendors and a commemorative pint glass (while supplies last).

All sampling is included in the regular ticket price, and additional 16 oz. pours will be available from $6 – $7 each. Additionally, VIP ticketholders will have access to sampling one hour before the general public (11:00 am) as well as a catered VIP section, preferred parking and more.

All ticketholders will have access to the festival throughout the day with a designated wristband.

Promoters ask that you keep your ticket stub for re-entry as well as proof of purchase. Valid ID should be in your possession at all times and is required to take advantage of sampling and purchases.

Standard ticket prices are $25 in advance and $30 onsite. VIP ticket prices are $40 in advance and $50 on site (availability limited). Tickets can be purchased here: http://www.eventbrite.com/e/ontap-tickets-10849843173?aff=eorg
