BeerFest Sydney 2018
Australia's longest running beer festival is heading to Sydney for the first time — with 300 brews in tow.
Overview
It's taken a heck of a long time — ten years, to be exact — but having become a permanent fixture on the summer events calendar for Fremantle, Launceston and Melbourne, BeerFest is finally hitting Sydney.
The festival is set to descend on Centennial Parklands on Saturday, December 1, in a heady blaze of music, comedy, food and, of course, beer. For its frothy Sydney debut, BeerFest will round up over 40 artisan breweries, delivering huge lineup of 300 craft drops, alongside a stack of great ciders, cocktails and wines. You'll kick off summer with a day of tastings, food and beer matchings, and free, brewer-led masterclasses showcasing one-off creations.
Some of the breweries you'll find on the day include Sydney's Young Henrys and Sauce Brewing Co, ACT's BentSpoke, Melbourne's Edge Brewing Project and WA's Colonial Brewing.
What's more, this little shindig is also packing a serious punch in the entertainment department, with an impressive musical lineup featuring dance icons Sneaky Sound System, along with Kid Kenobi, Grinspoon's Phil Jamieson and Triple J presenter Gen Fricker.
There'll be plenty of laughs to be had, too, as the BeerFest Sydney comedy stage plays host to hilarious favourites like Luke Heggie, Matt Okine and Demi Lardner.
Entry to the festival is $35, which gets you access to the day's full swag of live entertainment.
