Get ready for a weekend of cold brews, mouthwatering BBQ and live music when Beer & BBQ Fest returns to the Adelaide Showgrounds in Wayville this June.
Taking place over the King’s birthday long weekend (June 6-8), a month earlier than usual, this year’s edition of the annual fest now includes a third night of frivolities. The bonus Sunday night is called ‘Legends Night’, so expect something bloody legendary to be announced.
The full lineup of breweries, producers and bands drops Thursday, March 13, but those eager to score their tickets early can do so by purchasing pre-sale tickets (single-day and full weekend tickets) now via Moshtix.
Organisers are promising “the biggest line-up we have ever seen in our 10 years of beers,” with the limited pre-sale tickets priced at 2024 general releases prices, meaning you’ll save between 18-41% depending on the type of tickets you purchase. Bargain!
