Bars, breweries, restaurants, and festivals across the country host Steinholding competitions, but finding them can be difficult. We're here to help! We put this map together to provide you with as much information as possible and make it easy to find a place to compete. We track festival websites and social media feeds, and communicate with organizations and companies to get this list into your hands. We can't guarantee that all information provided to us is accurate, and schedules can change at the last minute, so before you go too far out of your way to visit any of these locations, we recommend that you confirm the dates and times with the venue directly.
Note that the different icons on the map mean different things! Green beer stein icons represent official USSA State Championship tournament qualifying locations. Blue beer steins are for USSA Member Venues (not state qualifiers). Red dots are for Hofbräu qualifying locations, and grey dots are for fully independent competitions which are not affiliated with USSA. Check out our explanation of the difference between competition types here.
And don't forget- check out our USSA State Championship Program pages for more information on Qualifying State Championship Venues if you want to participate in our state-wide tournaments that funnel into our National Championship!
