The Windsor Craft Beer Festival, scheduled to take place in less than two weeks, has been cancelled.
The event was planned for Saturday, October 14.
"Festivals across North America have undergone significant changes in the last few years," explained Windsor Craft Beer co-owner Adriano Ciotoli. "After 10 years, we need to take a step back and develop a fresh perspective on what craft beer festivals of this size are and will be in the future."
Instead of the larger festival in Walkerville, organizers are planning a more intimate event at WindsorEats on Erie Street.
The small Fall Beer and Cider Festival is scheduled for the same day and plans to highlight the growing local cideries in Essex County alongside Ontario craft beers.
Tickets are $15 and can be purchased on WindsorEats.
