The unique travelling circus of beer that is GABS returns to the East Coast in May and June 2023.

  • 120 NEW Festival Beers from Australia, New Zealand, the UK and the USA 
  • GABS Ale Trail where you can chat to brewers and sample from hundreds of different beers at more than 60 brewery bars
  • Entertainment, Food & Giveaways including the GABS Academy, Silent Disco, street food, beer games, Balter Tins of Glory, Mountain Goat Air Guitar Challenge, Atomic Wheel of Pourtune, roving bands, stage shows, eating competitions and more
