Summer Starts in Beaumont

Summer Starts in Beaumont!

Summer in Beaumont isn't just a season — it's the main event. Whether you're a local looking for your next favorite Friday night spot or a visitor ready to discover what this city is really made of, Beaumont is turning up the heat (and the music, and the craft beer) all summer long. From live performances echoing through downtown venues to cold pints poured by the people who call this city home, there's never been a better time to get out and experience Beaumont. So grab your friends, clear your calendar, and get ready — summer starts here!

Sound of Beaumont

Beaumont has always had a sound. This summer, we're making sure everyone hears it. The Sound of Beaumont is Visit Beaumont's summer-long music campaign celebrating the incredibly diverse live music scene that makes this city feel alive — blues, country, rock, rap, spoken word, and everything in between. At the heart of the campaign is the free Beaumont Sound Passport, powered by Bandwango. Check in at participating live music venues throughout the summer to earn raffle entries for a chance to win two front row tickets to see Parker McCollum at Doggett Ford Park on September 26. One check-in gets you one entry — hit ten and you score five. The more you explore, the better your chances. Sign up, get out, and let Beaumont's music scene surprise you.

Brew City Beaumont

Beaumont just made it official — we're a Brew City, Texas. That's not just a fun title; it's a designation awarded by the Texas Craft Brewers Guild to communities making a real impact on craft beer culture and tourism across the state. On June 13 at 4 p.m., we're celebrating in true Beaumont fashion with a kickoff event at Buckstin Brewing Company — and yes, there will be cold beer. The party is free and open to the public, so come learn about Beaumont's local brewery scene, grab some CVB swag, and while you're at it, sign up for the Beaumont Brew Trail. It's another free Bandwango passport experience where you can check in at local breweries and beverage spots all summer long for chances to win Beaumont-themed prizes. Cheers to that!

There’s More Where That Came From

Whether you're into outdoor adventures, arts and culture, shopping local, or just finding a new favorite restaurant, this city has something going on all summer long.
