Gulf Coast MakerCon 2025 is the Gulf Coast's biggest and oldest maker festival, an annual celebration of the DIY Inventive Spirit, hosted by the nonprofit Foundation for Community Driven Innovation. This year's MakerCon will be held at the Yuengling Draft Haus and Kitchen on May 31. The event is free and open to the public, and in this beautiful new venue will offer a fun and engaging day for all!

This is an outdoor event, held on the broad, shady, spacious grounds of the Draft Haus. Nonprofit and education exhibits are free. Vendor and some commercial booths for craft and hobby suppliers are also available.

Guests will enjoy creative “maker” style exhibits – crafts, trades, arts, music, jewelry making, wood working, metal work, textiles, inventions, innovations, interactive exhibits and related presentations, a combat robotics tournament, drone flying demonstrations and more!
