Nashua River Brewers Festival Tops

$100,000 In Charitable Giving Since 2008

Beers For Good donates proceeds from the 2024 festival to the Nashua River Watershed Association and Fitchburg Civic Days

FITCHBURG, MA – Nashua River Brewers Festival organizers celebrated topping $100,000 in donations to North Central Massachusetts nonprofits since the festival’s 2008 inception with check presentations to the Nashua River Watershed Association and Fitchburg Civic Days at Fitchburg City Hall.

The annual event at Riverfront Park brings together dozens of brewers, talented musical acts and food trucks from throughout New England to Downtown Fitchburg for a day of fun, entertainment and outstanding craft beer in the park’s marquee event each summer.

Hundreds of attendees helped raise money for this year’s primary beneficiary – the Nashua River Watershed Association – as well as Fitchburg’s annual downtown July 4 celebration Civic Days.

The $6,000 in 2024 donations brought the charitable impact of the festival to $102,000 delivered to nonprofit organizations in and around Fitchburg over the course of the festival’s history.

Beers For Good, the all-volunteer group that founded the festival in 2008 and runs it each year, has a three-fold mission: To raise money for a good cause; to educate the public about the great variety of craft beers in this region; and to attract people to the City of Fitchburg. We do this by producing high-quality, beer-centric events in Fitchburg that are both enjoyable and showcase the great entertainment and recreation venues the City of Fitchburg has to offer.

Beers for Good is hoping you will mark your calendars for the 15th Nashua River Brewers Festival that will be held on June 28, 2025, at Riverfront Park in Downtown Fitchburg.
