EVENT POSTPONED
Dear Canberra BeerFesters,
This is a message to let you know that sadly, due to unexpected site complications, we’ve had to make the difficult call to cancel/postpone Canberra BeerFest in February while we scout out a new location.
All ticket holders have being refunded.
We’re genuinely sorry for any inconvenience this causes. It wasn’t an easy decision, but we’re confident it’s the right move to ensure the festival’s future is as epic as ever. Thanks for your understanding, and we promise to keep you in the loop with any updates.
Until then, stay tuned, stay excited!
