EAA Hops & Props 2022 canceled; tickets to be refunded

EAA AVIATION CENTER, OSHKOSH, Wisconsin — (January 24, 2022) —  EAA’s annual Hops & Props food and drink tasting event, scheduled for Saturday, March 12, at the EAA Aviation Museum in Oshkosh, has been canceled. All tickets purchased will be refunded.

“We strive to make this event and all EAA events top-flight experiences, and an unfortunate confluence of circumstances made it impossible to host Hops & Props this year at the level of quality we expect,” said Jack Pelton, EAA CEO and Chairman. “That included some of the long-time brewery participants that are no longer in business and major staffing challenges for outside events among other brewers, plus other contributing factors. We will review all these as we look ahead to 2023.”

All tickets that have already been purchased will be fully refunded, via credits on charge and debit cards used for the purchase.
