Get ready for another round of the Bloody Mary Festival – but with a slightly different mix, as the hangover cure-slinging hangout will return on Saturday, Aug. 12, this time at Henry Maier Festival Park. 

The previous three Bloody Mary Festivals – including its first Brew City serving in 2019 – all took place in the plaza outside Fiserv Forum in Deer District. This summer's edition, however, will move to the Mid Gate Pavilion – aka the former Johnson Controls Pavilion – on the Summerfest grounds. 

What hasn't changed, though, is that the Bloody Mary Festival will celebrate all sorts of locally made renditions of the tomato-based tonics (hopefully with a chaser, if they're doing it right) for attendees to sample and vote for as the people's choice winner. Along with Bloody Marys of all types and toppings, the fourth annual festival will feature snacks, photo ops, tomato-y temporary tattoos and more. 

Vendors and participants in this year's Bloody Mary Festival will be announced as it draws closer – but tickets are available now at the event's website. The festival takes place in two sessions, with the early set pouring from 11:15 a.m. (10:30 a.m. for VIP ticket holders) until 1:30 p.m. and the later session pouring from 3:45 p.m. (3 p.m. for VIPs) until 6 p.m. For more information and to purchase admission, visit the Bloody Mary Festival's website.
