Step into a beer lover’s paradise, the country’s biggest alfresco beer and cider garden. Wander through pop-up bars to sample over 200 Australian and international brews, visit stalls and stroll alleyways to discover surprising happenings, music, art and irresistible entertainment around each turn. Learn from the free seminars, lose yourself to the sounds of worldly music, the reggae and Calypso from Nicky Bomba & Friends, to a variety of indie, jazz, funk, folk, blue grass and country.

Taste some homebrew, visit the Instagram booth. The idea is to drink, eat, socialise and be merry with plenty of opportunity to kick back and taste incredible beers and ciders. Immerse yourself in the colour of this iconic summer fest.
