SINGAPORE – Singapore’s craft beer scene is set for another milestone as Brewnanza Fest 2025, the nation’s largest and most anticipated craft beer festival, returns to Marina Bay Sands Expo & Convention Centre from 29 to 31 August 2025. Organised by local craft beer pioneer Brewlander and supported by the Singapore Tourism Board, this third edition promises to be the most ambitious yet uniting over 100 distinctive brews, a world-class lineup of international breweries, culinary delights, and live performances in a full-on sensory celebration.
After a sold-out 2024 edition, Brewnanza Fest 2025 raises the bar with a world class selection of beers from juicy IPAs and wild ales to fruit forward sours and complex stouts. Among the star attractions this year is the debut of the Brewers Association (USA), presenting 16 award winning American breweries, including cult favorites like Fremont Brewing and Side Project.
Also joining the party are global standouts such as the UK’s Verdant Brewing Co., Finland’s Revenant Brewing Project, Japan’s West Coast Brewing, and Thailand’s Samata. The festival also welcomes back crowd favourites like Germany’s Sudden Death Brewing and Australia’s Rocky Ridge, alongside regional trailblazers including Uchu Brewing (Japan), Young Master, and Heroes Beer Co. (Hong Kong).
At the heart of Brewnanza is Brewlander, showcasing a limited-edition beer brewed exclusively for the event. Singapore’s vibrant local brewing scene will also be well represented with participation from Lion Brewery Co., Alive Brewing, and Ren Min, each bringing their unique takes on tropical, sour and bold beer profiles.
For non-beer lovers or those seeking variety, Draft Land from Taiwan will be serving cocktails on tap and Dancing Cider will offer crisp artisanal cider options.
This year’s food line-up includes new entrants like MEOW Barbecue, known for its mouth-watering skewers, as well as returning favourites like Smokeys BBQ, Black Tap Craft Burgers & Beer, Papi’s Tacos and Chico Loco. Whether it’s American-style ribs or juicy rotisserie chicken, every bite is crafted to pair perfectly with your pint.
Music remains central to the Brewnanza experience. Expect a vibrant mix of indie bands, regional DJs, and party collectives providing an electric soundtrack. The full performance lineup will be revealed in the coming weeks.
In addition to drinks and entertainment, the festival also offers educational experiences. Attendees can join brewing masterclasses and live demonstrations led by global beer experts. This hands-on element gives guests a deeper appreciation of the craft behind their favourite pours.
“Brewnanza has always been about making craft beer approachable for new drinkers, while giving long-time fans something to get excited about,” says Brewlander founder John Wei. “When we first started, most people played it safe. Now, they’re chasing down barrel-aged sours and geeking out over wild fermented ale. That shift says a lot — people are becoming more curious, more adventurous. This year’s line-up taps into that energy and gives a glimpse into how the scene is growing and evolving.”
Brewnanza Fest 2025 opens from 6:00 PM to 2:00 AM on Friday, 29 August, continues from 2:00 PM to 2:00 AM on Saturday, 30 August, and concludes from 12:00 PM to 10:30 PM on Sunday, 31 August.
