From face-painting to a rock climbing wall, Berea’s National Rib Cook-Off & Beer Fest makes a special effort to create family friendly environment with a picnic style atmosphere. Our Festival offers FREE PARKING ALL WEEKEND LONG, FREE ADMISSION for kids under 12, and in celebration of National Military Appreciation Month, all retired and active military personnel presenting a military ID will be admitted FREE ALL WEEKEND! General Admission is FREE ON FRIDAY BEFORE 5PM, ONLY $5 AFTER 5PM, AND JUST $5 ON SATURDAY, SUNDAY, AND MONDAY (MEMORIAL DAY).

Boasting more award winning ribbers than any Cleveland area rib fest, Berea’s National Rib Cook-Off & Beer Fest is a can’t miss event for those who love barbecue and brew.
