Halloween on Central returns this Sunday, October 26 starting at noon, and Grand Central Brewhouse is right in the middle of the fun.
From 12 to 5 PM, Central Avenue will be closed to cars and filled with costumes, candy, and community for one of St. Pete’s biggest street festivals. Bring your friends, family, and costumed pups for a full day of trick-or-treating, contests, and local flavor.
Inside we’ll be tapping a few Halloween-inspired beers for the day plus “Spook Spice” cider from our pals at Beech Kombucha.
We’ll also have VS Wines, Wood House Spa Massage School, and Moon Under Water set up on-site. Mike from Moon Under Water will be out front on Central with prizes, giveaways, and a chance to win a seat at their first complimentary food-and-beer pairing.
After the festival winds down, stick around for a free screening of Beetlejuice in the Beer Garden at 6:30 PM, presented by Connect Pinellas. Grab a pint, find a seat, and enjoy a perfect Halloween Sunday.
