Obsidian Dark Beer Festival

Food and Wine

20 Jun 2026 Annual Event

Immerse yourself in the rich world of dark beer at Obsidian Dark Beer Festival.

This unique winter event showcases 15 independent breweries from across Victoria, pouring more than 30 bold and flavourful dark beers. From smooth stouts and rich porters to innovative and experimental brews, Obsidian celebrates the depth, complexity and creativity of the dark beer spectrum.

Your ticket includes tastings of all featured beers, a festival glass to take home, and access to local food vendors and a selection of spirits and cocktails.

Following a standout debut and a second year sell-out, Obsidian returns in 2026 with an even stronger lineup, including some of Victoria’s leading dark beer specialists.

With limited capacity and strong demand, this event is expected to sell out. Secure your tickets early and experience the dark side of beer.
