WHO: Lovers of hops and barley and slabs of the beloved pork.

WHAT: A hedonistic array of decadent bacon dishes, free-flowing craft beer, and incredible performances. Check out a celebrity chef cook-off, ride a mechanical bull, enter a bacon eating contest, swing from a hammock and chow down on more pork goodness than you ever have before. Over 50 local restaurants will provide the grub (chocolate covered bacon!) and over a 100 craft beers will be there for the--unlimited--tasting. (There's even a bacon seesaw. We swear.)

WHEN: There will be two sessions on Saturday, June 8th: one at 1 pm to 4 pm and another from 7 pm to 10 pm.

WHERE: The Brooklyn Mirage, a ginormous outdoor venue in E. Williamsburg.

WHY: Because. Bacon and beer.

HOW MUCH: General admission tickets cost $69. There are higher ticket levels that allow for earlier access to everything, entry to a pig roast, admission to a VIP bar and other fancy stuff.
Have a great weekend, everyone!
