Battlestar Classic 8 Craft Brew Festival Fundraiser

Join us on the dock next to Red Oak Victory during Fleet Week on October 12 for the Battlestar Classic 8 Craft Brew Festival, a fundraiser benefiting the maintenance and restoration of the historic ship, USS Red Oak Victory. This famous and successful event has been on USS Hornet for seven years but now moves to Richmond and Red Oak Victory to celebrate the legacy of Rosie the Riveter and the Richmond Shipyards.

More than thirty craft breweries will be on hand to provide samples of their beverages (for those over 21 only, of course). We’ll have live music throughout the day and food trucks on hand for lunch. You can board Red Oak Victory for a self-guided tour of this historic World War II ship. On top of all that, stay for the afternoon and watch the Fleet Week Air Show action over the Bay. And did we mention: Plenty of free parking!

All of this is included with your ticket for the festival. Adults over 21 are $65 each which includes admission to the event and a commemorative beer glass. ($71.21 including ticketing fees.) Adult admission on the day of the event will be $75 each if we’re not sold out. So we think it’s a good idea to purchase your tickets in advance. This is a family-friendly event and we encourage you to bring the kids along, too. Tickets for those under 21, and for those who do not wish to drink alcohol, are $10 each. ($12.51 including ticketing fees.) Minors and non-alcohol tickets will be $15 each on the day of the event.

The California Cornhole Association will be conducting a tournament throughout the day. If you wish to participate in the tournament you’ll need to register ahead of time by visting https://calcornhole.com/event/battlestar-classic-8/.

AND FOR EVEN MORE FUN! On the day after the Battlestar 8 Classic event, Red Oak Victory will hold their famous Fleet Week Pancake Breakfast. For information about that event and to purchase tickets click here.
