Happy Thursday!
It looks like weâll be getting a little break from the rain this weekend, just in time to enjoy some sunshine, music and cold craft brews out at Punk in the Park at the Ventura Fairgrounds on Saturday, March 25.
The Orange County-based brand, which was created by Brew Ha Ha Productions, hosts its two-day flagship event at Oak Canyon Park in Silverado, but has expanded into other cities across the country and is now hitting Ventura County for the first time.
The inaugural single-day Ventura fest will include sets by Pennywise, Suicidal Tendencies, The Bouncing Souls, Fear, Manic Hispanic and several others, as well as offer tastings of craft beer, seltzers, kombucha, mead and more from local and regional makers. We spoke with Brew Ha Ha Productionsâ Cameron Collins about the growing brand, how the initial Punk in the Park came together and what the future is for the event. Read our full interview here.
