About
Rhythm & Brews is hands down one of our favorite fall events on Hilton Head Island. This isn't your typical beer festival - it's a perfect blend of live music, craft tastings, and island vibes all rolled into one amazing afternoon. The headliner Kaylee Rose brings serious Nashville energy, and trust me, her high-energy performances get everyone moving.
What makes this event special is the unlimited tastings from 100+ breweries, distilleries, and wineries. Plus, knowing that every ticket supports ALS research through their Ales for ALS partnership makes the experience even more meaningful.
Location
The festival takes place at 39 Shelter Cove Lane, right in the heart of Shelter Cove. This location is absolutely perfect - you're surrounded by some of the island's best shopping, dining, and marina views. After the festival, you can easily walk to Shelter Cove Harbour for dinner or grab drinks with a waterfront view. The area is also close to popular beaches and just a short drive from Coligny Plaza if you want to extend your island adventure. Parking is complimentary, which is a huge bonus since finding parking during peak season can be a real headache.
Tickets & Pricing
There are two ticket options, and honestly, both are great value for what you get. General Admission runs $49 and gets you in from 2pm to 5pm. You'll get unlimited tastings, live music, a keepsake tasting glass, and access to local food vendors with festival-friendly prices.
If you want to make it extra special, go for VIP at $69. The early 1pm entry is clutch - you beat the crowds and get first dibs on everything. Plus, you get a larger keepsake glass, which is actually pretty nice quality.
Just remember, this is strictly 21+ with no exceptions. No kids, no pets. The festival happens on Saturday, September 27, 2025, so mark your calendars early because this event sells out.
