Welcome to NZ's Big Little Craft Beer Festival - A celebration of craft beer set in the sunny city of Nelson, NZ's main hop-growing region. Marchfest 2026 is ready to pour, serving up a fresh take on the festival and going bigger than ever. Over 20 independent breweries are rolling in with their own stands, pouring more than 100 beers to sample. Chat directly with the brewers, discover new favourites, and taste the best of New Zealand’s craft scene, all in one laid-back, sun-soaked day of flavour and good times.
All-day live music keeps the vibes flowing, creating the perfect soundtrack as you explore the festival. You’ll also find mouth-watering bites from top food trucks, local wine and cider on hand, and the ever-popular BrewZone packed with live demos and expert talks for those keen to learn the tricks of the trade.
Whether you’re a seasoned hophead, a music lover, or just chasing good summer vibes, Marchfest is your ticket to one unforgettable day in Nelson.
Raise your glass, grab your crew, and join the celebration on Saturday 28th March, 1pm-9pm at Founders Heritage Park.
Marchfest is an R18 event.
