GABS Beer, Cider & Food Festival

Featuring more than 300 beers and ciders and up to 80 specialty festival brews, GABS is one festival you don't want to miss.
Promising to be even bigger and better than last year’s showstopper, GABS is back at ASB Showgrounds in Greenlane for another beer and cider extravaganza, many of which will be created specifically for the festival.
This year there’s an extra session added so everybody has a chance to get a taste of the best craft bevvies from here and Australia. More food options and loads of entertainment make for a very fun day out.
