RICHMOND, Va. (WTVR)—The third annual solstice celebration at Hardywood Park is this Saturday, Dec. 21.

Obviously, since this is a solstice celebration at a brewery, the two things you can count on are lights and beer. There will also be music, food trucks and a showing of National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation on the big screen.

Also, the draft lineup–which you can see below–is pretty diverse.

This is the time to stock up on bottle merchandise and holiday growlers, since fills will be available for the holiday stouts, barrel aged stout and Gingerbread Stout.

At 4 p.m. National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation plays. At 6 p.m. there will be Tribe of Soul holiday set. At 7:15 p.m. the Green Hearts take the stage with their catchy melodies and sweet harmonies.

The illuminating part of the night happens after sundown. The event is free to enter, and runs from 2 -9 p.m. Saturday, at 2408 Ownby Lane.
