Welcome to Launceston BeerFest
Set against the stunning waterfront backdrop, Launceston BeerFest NYE offers a dynamic celebration, blending the best of local culture, talent, food, and beverage with Tasmanian pride and festivity, for a day (and night) packed with flavour and fun. This year, we’re turning up the heat with The Presets headlining the main stage, delivering an unforgettable NYE soundtrack.
