Festival Of Darkness 2026

EARLY BIRD TICKETS ON SALE NOW
Festival of Darkness is a one-day beer festival hosted across NOLA and The Stag, centred around dark beer, being held on June 27th.
Taking over both NOLA and The Stag, this annual sell-out brings together around 20 of Australia’s best independent breweries, each pouring a curated lineup of dark brews — from velvety stouts and porters to rich, barrel-aged heavy hitters and everything in between.
Across two venues and two sessions, guests are invited to roam freely between spaces, discover new favourites, and settle into the deep end of flavour. Expect a buzzing atmosphere, serious pours, and a crowd that knows their way around a good beer.
Your ticket includes a custom Festival of Darkness tasting glass, unlimited tastings from participating breweries, access to festival food from both venues, plus flash tattoos available throughout the day from Frida Ink Tattoos.

Two sessions:

2-5pm

6-9pm
It sells out every year — for good reason
