Ten years in Los Angeles hospitality is no small thing. Blink, and a decade disappears—unless you’re doing something right. That’s why Boomtown Brewery 10th Anniversary Weekend feels earned, not flashy. From February 21–23, DTLA’s Arts District favorite is throwing a three-day celebration that reflects exactly what Boomtown does best: craft beer with backbone, food that hits the spot, music that keeps the place buzzing, and a crowd that actually wants to be there.
If you’ve ever nursed an IPA under string lights in the Arts District or debated hazy versus West Coast styles with strangers who became friends, this one’s for you. Boomtown Brewery 10th Anniversary isn’t about nostalgia—it’s about momentum.
A Decade of Craft Beer in the DTLA Arts District
Located at Boomtown Brewery, Boomtown has spent the last ten years quietly becoming a cornerstone of the DTLA Arts District. No gimmicks. No chasing trends. Just full-flavored, unfiltered beer brewed with integrity—and served in a space that feels like a neighborhood living room.
The taproom sits steps from the production brewery and will be pouring more than 18 craft beers all weekend. Fan favorites like BAD HOMBRE Mexican-Style Lager, Nose Job IPA, Chavez Ravine Hazy IPA, and Mic Czech Pilsner anchor the lineup, alongside rotating IPAs, stouts, sours, and gluten-free seltzers. Flavor-forward, fun-loving, and unapologetically L.A.
With Head Brewer Amber Sawicki and Production Manager Benjamin Turkel leading the charge, expect new releases designed specifically to mark the milestone—because anniversaries deserve fresh beer, not reruns.
Friday, February 21: Look-Alikes, Karaoke, and Liquid Courage
Friday night kicks things off with personality.
From 6:00–8:00 PM, Boomtown hosts a Look-Alike Contest inviting guests to dress as an L.A. icon. Dominic Toretto? Billie Eilish? Fernando Valenzuela? All fair game. Winners walk away with Boomtown merch—and one ultimate champion earns a Boomtown Golden Glass Membership. That’s not a joke prize.
Fuel comes from Correas Mariscos and Word of Mouth Truck before Karaoke Night takes over from 8:00–11:00 PM. Sing a song, get $2 off your next beer. Yes, courage is included in the pint. Relatable? Absolutely.
Saturday, February 22: The Official 10th Anniversary Party
Saturday is the main event—and it’s free to attend.
From noon until 1:00 AM, Boomtown goes full send with live bands, stand-up comedy, trivia, and a nonstop flow of craft beer. Food vendors Taqueria Frontera and Vegan Hooligans serve all day, with Tripp Burger holding down the evening hours. At 9:00 PM, The Funk Freaks take the stage, turning the taproom into a proper dance floor.
After 8:00 PM, it’s a 21+ crowd, but the vibe stays inclusive—high-energy without being chaotic. Three mentions of flavor and fun-loving? You’ll find them by your second pour.
Sunday, February 23: Hip Hop, Hazy Panda, and a Ticketed Finale
Sunday closes the weekend with intention.
Boomtown teams up with INFMS Beer for a ticketed Hip Hop Concert & exclusive return of Hazy Panda IPA. Doors open at 6:00 PM after a brief daytime closure. The lineup is serious: DJ Nu-Mark (Jurassic 5), Bad Neighbor (Blu & MED), DJ C-Los, DJ Mishaps, Psycho Les & Big Twins—plus food from The Wingman Official.
This is a 21+ ticketed event with limited availability, and it’s designed for people who appreciate beats, beer, and balance. Sip, nod your head, repeat.
Why Boomtown Brewery Matters
Boomtown Brewery has never tried to be everything. That’s why it works.
Owned by John Rankin, Alex Kagianaris, and Samuel “Chewy” Chawinga, Boomtown has built a community hub where artists, makers, and beer lovers actually overlap. Trivia nights, open mics, live music, food pop-ups—it’s programming with purpose.
In a city where concepts come and go, longevity means something. According to the Brewers Association, fewer than half of craft breweries make it past their first five years—a reminder of just how rare a ten-year run really is: https://www.brewersassociation.org.
