Surly Brewing Co. upcoming events — Minneapolis, Minnesota

Discover the Beloved Surly Brewing Co. Venue

The Surly Brewing Co. is more than a brewery and event venue — it's a beloved gathering place that blends craft, community, and culture in the heart of Minneapolis. Minutes from the University of Minnesota, it’s a go-to destination for Surly Brewing Co. upcoming events, seasonal celebrations, and lively get-togethers with friends.

Step inside and you’ll find a modern industrial space anchored by a sprawling beer hall, a scenic beer garden, and an upstairs event space with panoramic views. High ceilings, open sightlines, and a clean, contemporary design make it as visually striking as it is comfortable.

Programming here ranges from live music and community events to private celebrations in the upstairs spaces. Signature happenings like SurlyFest and Darkness Day bring big energy and limited-release beers to the calendar, while local and regional artists keep the stage buzzing throughout the year.

You’ll also find state-of-the-art brewing equipment and thoughtful space planning throughout — from communal tables perfect for groups to an outdoor patio that lights up in the warmer months. Whether you’re here for a special event or a casual night out, the venue’s design and amenities make it easy to relax and take in the atmosphere.

With skyline views from the upstairs event space and a vibrant beer garden scene, Surly Brewing Co. promises a memorable experience in any season. Come for the beer and community — stay for the energy and the view.

Arrival Recommendations

Pre-Event Planning

Make the most of your visit by exploring the venue’s different spaces. If the weather’s on your side, start with a pint in the Beer Garden before moving inside for a set or a group hang at a communal table. Prefer a quieter vantage point? The upstairs event space offers a more elevated feel and scenic views.

Time your arrival to catch the Minneapolis skyline at sunset — the upstairs space is especially photogenic. For big events like SurlyFest and Darkness Day, arriving early gives you the best shot at parking, a prime spot, and time to sample seasonal or limited releases before crowds build.

Coordinating with a group? Decide on a meeting point beforehand — near the main entrance, a designated table in the Beer Hall, or a corner of the patio — so everyone can link up quickly, especially during busy times.

Accessibility

Surly Brewing Co. is ADA-accessible, with accessible parking in the on-site lot and accessible seating available throughout the Beer Hall and patio. Elevators provide access to the upstairs event spaces, making it easier for guests with mobility needs to enjoy the full venue experience.
