ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. - s4story -- As the weather cools off, and the smell of roasting green chile begins to permeate the city, you can feel that the fall festival season has begun. Kicking it off in the best of ways is the return of ABQ CORKS AND BREWS. On Saturday, October 2nd at The Rail Yards outdoor market space you will have the opportunity to enjoy the afternoon with 17 LOCAL beer, wine, and spirit vendors. Add to that, food trucks, an open-air market, and live music - and you have yourself a guaranteed good time.

In partnership with the City of Albuquerque, this event is about bringing the community and out-of-town Balloon Fiesta visitors together to have a great time and support local businesses. Organizers have also pledged 20% of all ticket sales to be donated to the non-profit, CAMP ENCHANTMENT - a camp for children, ages 7 to 17, from all over the state of New Mexico, who are in treatment for, or survivorship from, cancer.
