Overview

Melbourne's own little pocket of New York City-style cool is firing up for Good Beer Week, hosting a rollicking block party with beers, art and tunes aplenty. On Saturday, May 22, Section 8 and Ferdydurke — and their famed laneway surrounds — will come alive for this free shindig co-helmed by the USA's renowned Brooklyn Brewery.

Drop by from 2pm to catch a diverse lineup of live music from acts like Pookie, Man Made Mountain, Khiarra, Culture Evolves and more. There'll be roving entertainment, projection art courtesy of the talented Simbiotic Vision, and dance performances served up by the likes of Maggie Madfox, Lauren Drago and Peter Isaac Koh. While there, you'll be able to indulge in a spot of retail therapy at the Fresh Flames vintage streetwear pop-up. And of course, the Brooklyn Brewery crew will be on hand pouring a stack of fresh beers throughout the day — including a few limited-edition and special releases.
