Big Gin Festival 2019

Overview

When Welcome to Bowen Hills announced that it was coming to town, it promised food trucks aplenty, plus food and booze-themed events aplenty too. More than a year later, it has been delivering on both — and just as it did in 2018, it's hosting a big gin festival to prove it.

Not just any big gin festival, mind you. This is the Big Gin Festival, taking place from 12pm on Saturday, March 30. Juniper spirits will be flowing, with a heap of different gin stalls serving up free tastings from midday. If you're a fan of Ink Gin, Fair Gin, 4 Pillars, Brookies, Tanqueray, Hendricks and more, then your tastebuds will be happy.

Entry is free, there'll be food onsite as usual, and gin lovers can also expect inventive takes on the good ol' G&T as well as other creative gin cocktails. WtBH's main bar will be slinging more than 60 varieties of the drink in question, too, because gin and meals-on-wheels go together nicely at this Ekka showgrounds hangout.
