That's a wrap on Obsidian Dark Beer Festival 2026! ๐ป
What an incredible weekend celebrating dark beer and the passionate people behind it.
A huge thank you to our 14 breweries who travelled from across Victoria to share their beers, stories and enthusiasm with festival-goers. To our fantastic suppliers, food vendors and volunteers, thank you for helping create an experience that goes far beyond what's in the glass.
We're incredibly grateful to our festival partners and supporters whose backing helps make Obsidian possible each year. Your belief in what we're building means the world.
Most importantly, thank you to every single person who bought a ticket and walked through the doors. Whether this was your first Obsidian or you've been with us since day one, you're the reason this festival exists. Seeing familiar faces return each year while welcoming so many first-timers into the Obsidian community is something we're immensely proud of.
From the sold-out Degustation Dinner on Friday night to two fantastic festival sessions on Saturday, the atmosphere was something special.
Thank you for supporting independent breweries, regional events and the Victorian craft beer community.
We'll take a moment to catch our breath, reflect on another amazing year and start thinking about what's next.
Until then, cheers from the Obsidian team. ๐ค
