Beer festival to bring party vibes

HEY, party people! Are you ready to crank up the party vibes and celebrate like never before?

The Geelong Beer Festival is back, and this year, it is turning up the heat with an event that’s an absolute must.

The event returns to the picturesque Johnstone Park on January 20 from 12 noon-8pm.

The festival celebrates the region’s best in food/drink, arts, and entertainment combining a stellar list of world-class breweries, cideries, distilleries, cocktail specialists, vineyards and local gourmet street food, complemented by a dynamic program of live entertainment and curated activities.

Get set for Bag Raiders, who will be tearing up the decks with an epic performance and be swept away by the Sound Lounge with roving and interactive performances from the Ale Capones, DJ and saxophone sessions, dance competitions and a rockin’ piano bar.

Join in the non-stop free entertainment and activities featuring live cooking demonstrations at the Culinary Stage, fun and informative Masterclasses, challenge your pals to games and competitions, or just revel in the sun and soak up the party atmosphere.
