Austin 360 Large food festivals haven't taken place in Austin in more than a year, but with the pandemic easing in the area, several organizations are bringing back their sip-and-stroll events. The Texas Craft Brewers Festival announced recently that it would host its popular tasting event at Fiesta Gardens on Oct. 23. Organizers from the Texas Craft Brewers Guild said they were "optimistically planning" for the festival to take place this fall with dozens of breweries from around the state. Tickets won't go on sale until later this summer, and there will likely be some changes to how the event is structured, depending on what happens between now and then, organizers said.
