Marchfest
Marchfest, Founders Heritage Park
Marchfest is a celebration of craft beer in the sunny little city of Nelson, New Zealand's main hop-growing region. Enjoy never-before-tasted brews from the best Top of the South and NZ craft breweries, a tasting bar, live music, brewing demonstrations, delicious local artisan food, local ciders and wines, and so much more!
Brewers unveil exclusive beers that push the boundaries of flavour and craftsmanship.
“Marchfest is all about celebrating the incredible talent and innovation of New Zealand’s craft brewing community,” says Shelley Haring, Festival Director.
The Nelson Tasman region is New Zealand’s sole hop-growing area, and has more craft breweries per head of the population than anywhere else in the country. Unlike ordinary beer festivals, all the beers available at Marchfest have been specially commissioned for the event and have never previously been tasted by the public.
