History of Brews, Eats & Beats
Estd
2012
Brews, Eats & Beats (formerly Blues, Brews n BBQs) has grown into an annual summer staple here in Plymouth. Profits from the music fest have supported our community partners PRISM, Loaves & Fishes, and Twin Cities Habitat for Humanity. It's all about bringing community together for a great cause: raising money to fight hunger right here in Plymouth through our Loaves & Fishes Community Meal.

AN OUTDOOR MUSIC FEST
In 2011, volunteer organizers wanted to take advantage of the great outdoor space at Mount Olivet. They put together a plan for a community-wide event featuring outstanding music, local craft breweries, and BBQ. Encouraged by a successful first year, organizers began planning an annual event.
A BENEFIT FOR PARTNERS
Since the beginning, Brews, Eats & Beats has always been a benefit for our community partners such as PRISM and Loaves & Fishes. In total over the years, Brews, Eats & Beats has drawn in 12,000+ socially conscious, music, beer and food enthusiasts. Thanks to the positive community response, the event has been able to distribute $180,000 to these partners.
BUILDING COMMUNITY
This event brings people and organizations together each year, with regular appearances from the Plymouth Fire Department with their fire engine and crew, exciting bands, volunteers and staff from partner organizations joining us and numerous in-kind and financial donations from local businesses.
VOLUNTEER DRIVEN
Each year, Brews, Eats & Beats is organized by a team of volunteers from Mount Olivet who lead everything from logistics and sponsors to food and vendors. As event day approaches, 75+ volunteers from the Mount Olivet community come out to set up the grounds, serve food and drinks, sell tickets, clean up and more.
