And once again this year they have stepped up to be the event\u2019s platinum sponsor, sponsoring the main stage for all of our musical acts which is headlined by nationally acclaimed Dear Rouge.<\/p>\n<p>This year organizers have another new sponsor that is doing some heavy lifting to really help to make this year\u2019s event special.<\/p>\n<p>Patrons of last year\u2019s precedent-setting festival will recall that a souvenir beer sampling cup was provided to the first 2,000 attendees to enter the gates. This year, event booster Councillor Cleve Mortelliti thought it would be great to have Coppa\u2019s name on that souvenir glass.<\/p>\n<p>He called Mr. Coppa and set up a meeting at his head office.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen I arrived, I was met by Louis Coppa along with his son John and daughter Frances and pitched the idea of their new brand and logo being part of our festival.   Without hesitation, Mr. Coppa said \u2018we want to be part of this, as we always like to give back and be a part of our community.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mortelliti said this is huge for the success of the festival because significant sponsorship is required to pull this event off. The beer sampling glasses represent a significant, necessary cost. Thanks to Coppa\u2019s Fresh Market, not only are they providing the glasses for this year\u2019s event, but a significantly upscale souvenir glass by last year\u2019s standards.<\/p>\n<p>The second annual King City Craft Beer and Food Truck Festival will be held Saturday, June 13 at Memorial Park in King City from noon to 9.30 p.m. This year\u2019s event will play host to some of the best craft breweries and gourmet food trucks from around the province. The event will also feature two stages with non-stop musical performance throughout the day, including this year\u2019s festival headliner, Dear Rouge.<\/p>\n<p>For more information, or to purchase advance tickets, please visit www.craftbeerandfood.ca.<\/p>\n<p>This event is in partnership with The Township of King, Coppa\u2019s Fresh Markets, Zancor Homes, The King Weekly Sentinel, and Yelp.<\/p>\n<a class=\"synved-social-button synved-social-button-share synved-social-size-24 synved-social-resolution-single synved-social-provider-facebook nolightbox\" data-provider=\"facebook\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" title=\"Share on Facebook\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.newspapers-online.com%2Fauroran%2Fwp-json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fposts%2F10974&#038;t=Local%20companies%20gear%20up%20for%20this%20Saturday%E2%80%99s%20King%20Craft%20Beer%20Festival&#038;s=100&#038;p&#091;url&#093;=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.newspapers-online.com%2Fauroran%2Fwp-json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fposts%2F10974&#038;p&#091;images&#093;&#091;0&#093;=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.newspapers-online.com%2Fauroran%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2015%2F06%2F2015-06-11-14.jpg&#038;p&#091;title&#093;=Local%20companies%20gear%20up%20for%20this%20Saturday%E2%80%99s%20King%20Craft%20Beer%20Festival\" style=\"font-size: 0px;width:24px;height:24px;margin:0;margin-bottom:5px;margin-right:5px\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Facebook\" title=\"Share on Facebook\" class=\"synved-share-image synved-social-image synved-social-image-share\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" style=\"display: inline;width:24px;height:24px;margin: 0;padding: 0;border: none;box-shadow: none\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newspapers-online.com\/auroran\/wp-content\/plugins\/social-media-feather\/synved-social\/image\/social\/regular\/48x48\/facebook.png\" \/><\/a><a class=\"synved-social-button synved-social-button-share synved-social-size-24 synved-social-resolution-single synved-social-provider-twitter nolightbox\" data-provider=\"twitter\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" title=\"Share on Twitter\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.newspapers-online.com%2Fauroran%2Fwp-json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fposts%2F10974&#038;text=Like%3F\" style=\"font-size: 0px;width:24px;height:24px;margin:0;margin-bottom:5px;margin-right:5px\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"twitter\" title=\"Share on Twitter\" class=\"synved-share-image synved-social-image synved-social-image-share\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" style=\"display: inline;width:24px;height:24px;margin: 0;padding: 0;border: none;box-shadow: none\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newspapers-online.com\/auroran\/wp-content\/plugins\/social-media-feather\/synved-social\/image\/social\/regular\/48x48\/twitter.png\" \/><\/a><a class=\"synved-social-button synved-social-button-share synved-social-size-24 synved-social-resolution-single synved-social-provider-mail nolightbox\" data-provider=\"mail\" rel=\"nofollow\" title=\"Share by email\" href=\"mailto:?subject=Local%20companies%20gear%20up%20for%20this%20Saturday%E2%80%99s%20King%20Craft%20Beer%20Festival&#038;body=Like%3F:%20https%3A%2F%2Fwww.newspapers-online.com%2Fauroran%2Fwp-json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fposts%2F10974\" style=\"font-size: 0px;width:24px;height:24px;margin:0;margin-bottom:5px\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"mail\" title=\"Share by email\" class=\"synved-share-image synved-social-image synved-social-image-share\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" style=\"display: inline;width:24px;height:24px;margin: 0;padding: 0;border: none;box-shadow: none\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newspapers-online.com\/auroran\/wp-content\/plugins\/social-media-feather\/synved-social\/image\/social\/regular\/48x48\/mail.png\" \/><\/a>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The second annual King City Craft Beer and Food Truck Festival will be held Saturday, June 13 at Memorial Park in King City from noon to 9.30 p.m. This year\u2019s event will play host to some of the best craft breweries and gourmet food trucks from around the province.
