The Great Australasian Beer SpecTAPular (GABS)



Known by its acronym of GABS this festival takes place in Melbourne, Auckland and Sydney. It celebrates all things beer but in particular, the best breweries, cider producers and food purveyors in the cities where it is held.



There will be beers to taste, of course, but you can also learn about making beers, eat some delicious food to accompany those schooners or tastings, and have some fun listening to music and socialising with like-minded people.

The American magazine, The Beer Connoisseur, listed GABS as one of the top 20 beer festivals in the world in 2015. Since its beginnings in 2011, GABS has become much more than just a beer festival. It showcases the best Australian and New Zealand craft breweries and cider producers and features hundreds of beers and ciders – including up to 180 'Festival Beers & Ciders' made just for the event, outstanding local food vendors, interactive exhibitor stalls, food and drink education, along with fun entertainment and activities.



In Melbourne, GABS will take place in the iconic Royal Melbourne Exhibition Building over the weekend of May 20-22. The dates for all cities are:

May 18-20, 2018, Royal Exhibition Hall, Melbourne (tickets on sale from March 23rd)
June 2, 2018 Sydney Showground Olympic Park Sydney (tickets on sale from March 23rd)
June 30,2018 ASB Showgrounds, Auckland (Tickets on sale from April 20th).
