As a ticket holder, you get to try FOUR, EIGHT, TWELVE or all SIXTEEN not so mini-burgers from each competitor and vote for your favorite — all while enjoying live tunes and a few craft brews in the sunshine. At the end of the day, a winner for "Best BRGR of the Day" will be crowned. The winning meat master will take home a four-day, three-night ‘Eatcation’ in Austin, Texas, the Golden BRGR trophy and burger bragging rights for a year. The runner-up will snag four Diamond Club tickets to a Nationals home game and the Silver BRGR trophy.
Pretty sweet, right? Yeah, we think so too!
GATEWAY PARK
Gateway Park is a 3-acre park next to the Key Bridge with a super convenient location, space for 5,000 meatatarians and a killer view of the Washington Monument. So grab some comfy shoes and take a stroll across the Key Bridge, hail an Uber, ride the metro to Rosslyn and walk a block, or cruise there on your bike and lock it up on one of four available bike racks.
TICKETS: $29
The DC BRGR Bash was designed to be a fun and affordable event that's best enjoyed with friends. For this reason, a single ticket is good for event access for one person, a wood coin to cast your vote, and a single 'Burger Flight.' A Burger Flight comes with four different tokens that can be exchanged for four "not so mini-burgers" from four pre-selected competitors.
16 oz. craft drafts are available for five bucks apiece at each craft beer bar.
The only way to taste a burger from each competitor is by purchasing all four burger flights. So grab three friends and bring your appetite because not so mini-burgers are perfect for sharing.

Additionally as a VIP, you will have access to a tented area with plenty of shade, the best view of both stages, private bathrooms and a designated VIP craft beer bar so you never get stuck in line.
IMPORTANT STUFF ABOUT THE BASH
Tickets are processed and issued through TicketFly. On July 13th, a map of the entrance and event grounds will be published on dcbrgrbash.com/faq. You will also receive a printed copy of the event grounds when you arrive. If you plan on enjoying a few delicious craft brews, please remember to bring a valid ID.
Please note that there are a limited number of tickets and once they sell out, that's it. The BRGR Bash sold out in 2013 and 2014, so don't wait too long to buy your tickets. Tickets are transferable but not refundable.
