A multi-day music festival has been a dream of Pals Brewing Company Co-Owner and Head Brewer Paul Oettinger since the business first opened its doors in 2017.  Fast forward 7 years and the Platte River Boots & Beef Festival will finally become a reality in 2024. “Live music has always been such a huge part of my life. My concert ticket stub collection numbers into the several hundred starting with my first AC/DC concert at Alpine Valley.” says Paul. “These days I’m all about country music and musicians that can play not just sing. Hosting our own music festival gives me the opportunity to showcase the songwriters and performers that I like and share them with other music lovers in the community. We’ve got some amazing acts coming right here to North Platte.”
