Brisbane Gin Festival
This boozy festival is bringing 50 craft gin distillers from around the country to Brisbane Showgrounds for three days of masterclasses and tastings.
Overview
If gin's your thing, that undying love is being pushed front-and-centre at the Brisbane Gin Festival. Headed to Brisbane Showgrounds for its 2025 event, the three-day festival will bring 50 craft gin distillers from around the country under one roof between Friday, April 4–Sunday, April 6.
Apart from bottomless tastings, punters will also have the chance to chat directly with the makers. Stallholders will be hawking plenty of gins, including Black Cockatoo Distillery, Heaps Good Spirits and Prohibition Liquor Co, plus The Gin Boutique, Hickson House and Nosferatu. And, once you've picked your favourite, you can purchase bottles for takeaway.
Tickets start at $73.72, with four sessions to choose from: 5–8pm on the Friday, 1–4pm and 5–8pm on the Saturday, and a 12–3pm session on Sunday. Your entry includes a tasting glass and a tote bag — plus all those samples.
Nosferatu is also doing guided tastings on the Saturday, while Kendor will get you creating your own gins on the Sunday. You'll pay $110 to attend, and will get access to the festival as well.
