Relating to: beer festivals conducted under temporary retail licenses; inapplicability of a sales tax exemption to beer festivals. (FE)

SB 930 removes a sales tax exemption for beer festivals held under temporary licenses. It specifically states that ticket sales and beer sales at these events are no longer exempt from sales tax. The bill defines a "beer festival" as an event charging admission, lasting no more than two consecutive days, and featuring beer from at least 25 different breweries. This change applies to festival sponsors operating under temporary Class B licenses, ending their previous tax-exempt status for festival-related sales.
