The Festival features over 60 breweries and distributors and offers more than 200 beers ranging from international mega-breweries such as Stella Artois to local microbreweries such as Drifter, Saggy Stone, Little Wolf and Urban Brewing. Look out for some of the special brews on offer: 2017 saw over a dozen limited edition brews launched at the Festival, there will no doubt be even more in 2018.
Cider enthusiasts will also be happy to know that there is a great selection on show.

To compliment the savouring of incredible beer, the Cape Town Festival of Beer offers an array of top-class pop-up restaurants and gourmet food trucks. You will be able to find eateries such as Kitchen Cowboys, Love Pizza, and Dos Chidos. Don’t miss out on the Cape Town Festival of Beer Boat Race, this annual highlight consists of some of Cape Town’s local celebrities and sports personalities competing against each other using only speed, agility and of course beer! The Festival has ample seating and casual picnic style areas where festival goers can relax in front of the large stage and listen to jazz and local live bands.
