Client Party: Central Machine Works
Tuesday, October 29, 2024
6:30 p.m. - 10:00 p.m.

Complimentary with registration. Transportation provided. 21+

Before opening as a brewpub in 2019, Central Machine Works Brewery was known as Capital Machine Works, a metal fabrication shop that produced custom parts starting with airplanes in WWII. Keeping to its industrial roots, the space has been reinvented with a perfect blend of old and new. The former airplane hangar has been transformed into an open-concept Beer Hall and expansive Beer Garden. With this whimsical venue as our backdrop, this will be a night you won’t want to miss!

Join us for live music, line dancing - with instructors, a full dinner of local fare, an open bar, and many more exciting surprises.

All iConnect attendees and guests are welcome, compliments of KUBRA; however, age restrictions apply (must be 21 or older).
