Commemorating International Beer Day, Sydney Beer Week (SBW) has announced a jam packed nine-day festival program pouring into a venue near you! With over 130 events across Greater Sydney, there are plenty of opportunities for everyone to taste a part of Sydney’s vibrant beer culture.

Sydney’s favourite beer festival kicks off with the SBW Gala Opening at the Australian National Maritime Museum on Friday 20 October. With a city skyline backdrop, over 30 breweries from Sydney, around Australia and overseas will be pouring their best beers including crowd favourites and special brews created exclusively for SBW. In addition to
sampling sours, lapping lagers and appreciating ales, lucky patrons will be fed by Sydney’s finest food trucks and dazzled by live entertainment and harbour side views.

Event tickets are on sale now via sydneybeerweek.com.au – and with something for everyone from beer and cheese pairings, brews and lawn bowling, beer 3 on 3 basketball
tournaments or a sea shanty singalong to name a few, you will need to get in quick to grab
your spot and be part of the celebration of beer. The festivities continue until Sunday 29
October with plenty of free events in the program to whet your appetite.

Festival Director Dave Phillips is excited to release the program of events for his first SBW.
“I’m stoked by the amazing efforts from the beer community to make so many great beer
experiences available for Sydney Beer Week. The hard yards have been put in by brewers,
venues, their mates and our own festival team to create an amazing line-up of events for
the beer curious as well as those already passionate and knowledgeable about their all
things beer”, said Phillips.

As the birthplace of Australian beer, Sydney has a rich and diverse history of brewing, and
SBW will feature some of the oldest in the country as well as the newest.
