โFAQs:
Wait isn't the actual summer solstice on the 20th?
We wanted to celebrate while as many people as possible could join us! Since June 20th falls on a weekend when many folks are traveling and June 19th is Juneteenth, we picked June 18th for the party. The days are still long and hopefully sunny!
What happens if there's rain?
While our event is hosted outside, if there is rain, we have the option to move inside / under the patio at Hold Out Brewing. The event will continue unless we get any report of dangerous weather.
