Miami’s Dry Fest: A Premier Celebration of Non-Alcoholic Beverages and Party Vibes
Dry Fest highlights Dry January and the sober-curious movement with 50+ tastings, top NA brands, live DJs, and food in Wynwood, Miami.
Dry Fest invites attendees to kick off the new year with a lively celebration of non-alcoholic beverages in a party atmosphere. Whether embracing Dry January, exploring the rise of alcohol-free options, or simply seeking a unique night out, Dry Fest will offer a fun, inclusive experience for everyone, not just the sober-curious.
“Mocktail Fest Miami continues to lead the charge in curating the best non-alcoholic beverage tastings and experiences,” said Marlene Aguilar, Co-Founder. “Dry Fest is more than a celebration of great NA drinks—it’s about community, discovery, and creating vibrant social spaces.”
“It’s extraordinary to taste so many delicious new alternatives to alcohol. Drinking less is more than a trend, it’s a movement,” said Michael Weschler, Co-Founder of Mocktail Fest Miami.
THE GROWING NA MOVEMENT
The demand for alcohol-free options is at an all-time high. In 2024, the IWSR (International Wines and Spirits Record) reported a 31% growth in the U.S. market for no/low alcohol beverages. By 2025, this segment is forecasted to exceed $1 billion in value, reflecting a significant consumer shift toward healthier and more conscious choices. Dry Fest celebrates this growth by providing a platform for attendees to discover their new favorite beverages and for brands to connect with their ideal audience.
