Code isn’t working 🙁
It’s working correctly now. Where it says “Got An Offer Code” enter it.
I am not sure what I may be doing wrong, but I am trying to buy tickets to the AC Beer Festival and it keeps telling me that no tickets are available. Can I get some help? Thanks in advance, Jeff Eichinger
It’s working correctly now. Where it says “Got An Offer Code” enter it.
Mike, I choose qty. then new jersey craft beer special offer. It prompts me for the code, tells me I have unlocked it and then …I am still getting this “Sorry… no tickets match your search.”
My sister and I volunteered for the ACBF last year and would like to volunteer again for this year. Can you give me the contact name?
Did not accept code
Definitely not working. PLEASE FIX. I want to buy my tickets immediately!
I just tried it. I entered NJCBMembers20 in the “Got an Offer Code” area and it unlocked the promo pricing.
Will there be another chance to use the discount code before the event.
The code isn’t working now. Will there be a way to use it going forward?
Was on ticketmaster to purchase ticket, and there is option for GA ticket for $55, or NJCraftBeer.com membership package for $65. Is there a difference?
The NJCB package includes a NJCB Membership for each ticket sold.
