These photos were taken Saturday evening at the 2024 El Segundo Beer, Wine & Spirits Festival, which was presented by The Zimmerman Automobile Driving Museum and the El Segundo Rotary Club. The charitable event featured local craft beer, wines from a couple wineries, spirits like vodka and tequila (that’s what I noticed anyway), and food from probably a dozen local eateries. There was also live music, a wandering magician, and a silent auction.

The breweries I noticed were El Segundo Brewing, Boardroom Brewery, Five Point Five Brewing, and Eureka Brewing. There was some amazing smells wafting around from local restaurants; I got some tasty samples from Raising Canes, Marmalade Cafe, and Mychal’s Learning Place. I was bummed that I was in a hurry because I really wanted to try a few others.

To be honest, I was not really sure what to expect when I arrived. I had been to the Zimmerman Automobile Driving Museum before, so I was not really sure how they would fit a festival inside; it was actually held outside, so that was a non-issue. By the way, if you like cars, you should pay a visit to The Zimmerman; it is a fun venue for motor heads.

Apparently the El Segundo Beer, Wine & Spirits Festival started eight years ago, with a two year hiatus due to the Covid lockdown. Anyway, it looked like it was running smoothly yesterday. Sadly, I could not stay long, due in part to my new dog and not really being sure what she can be trusted with, but I know that if I am invited back, I will try to get there early and stay late. It really was a fun event, and I could only experience a fraction of it. I have no hesitancy in recommending this event. Cheers!
