If Dad's got a thing for charred meats and crafty brews, we reckon he'd be pretty stoked to join you at Grazeland's next weekend-long food fest. The Spotswood food precinct is getting into the Father's Day spirit with its inaugural BBQ Beer Festival, running from Friday, September 1–Sunday, September 3. The weekend's food lineup is a meat-lover's dream, with lots of Grazeland's vendors set to serve up special barbecue-inspired eats for the occasion. Expect a plethora of smoked meats, along with a globe-trotting array of grilled goodies from the likes of Flaming Skewers, El Gaucho, Zuya African BBQ, Mr Toum Lebanese Grill, Smokeworks and newcomer Caribbean Eats.

Try sips like Hop Nation's Turon Milk Stout and Little Creatures' limited-release pilsner. And as always, there'll be plenty of live tunes and DJs across the weekend, ranging from soft rock, to classic backyard barbecue tracks. Entry to Grazeland is $4, with the festival running 5–10pm Friday, 12–10pm Saturday and 12–9pm Sunday.
