LOGAN SQUARE — This year's Logan Square Beer Fest is a no-go.
The fest, which would have descended onto the Logan Square Auditorium, 2539 N. Kedzie Blvd., for the fifth year on Oct. 7, was abruptly cancelled, according to the ticketing platform.
Beer fans Dave Watts and Marcus Osacky founded the festival in 2013 as a way to bring together beer drinkers and local brewers for tastings and giveaways. Osacky's family owns the Logan Square Auditorium.
It's unclear why the fest was cancelled. Attempts to reach the organizers were unsuccessful.
According to an email shared with DNAinfo Chicago, refunds will be issued automatically to those who already bought tickets.
10/7. Lack of explanation just strange. Website & social media accounts don't say it's cancelled. Others have rcvd same cancellation email pic.twitter.com/xW9AjZsTw2
