Beertopia is Hong Kong's largest international craft beer festival. Started in 2012, the most recent festival featured over 6,000 attendees taking over the West Kowloon Waterfront and trying over 250 different beers from around the world. The festival also included food, live music, beer lectures, and beer games. Beertopia was started by Jonathan So simply because there were no other craft beer festivals in Hong Kong. Originally from Toronto, and having lived in New York for many years, he was surprised to discover the lack of diversity in the beer selection in Hong Kong bars, as well as a general apathy towards beer. The goal of Beertopia is to provide an opportunity for people to taste and learn about quality beers they might not be aware of, and to do this in a fun and lively environment. While there are food and wine events in Hong Kong that also include beer, beer is typically an afterthought. By bringing beer to the forefront, hopefully the festival can help raise the interest of craft beer in Hong Kong. Food and Entertainment This year we'll have three times as much food, with an amazing range of delicious food to choose from. Live Music Get ready to rock out with some awesome bands! We're gonna have full lineups to blow the roof off every night. Stay tuned for the lineups announced in February! Singles Tent! Is there anything more romantic than meeting that special someone at a beer festival? Okay, never mind. So we've gotten a lot of questions about the Singles Tent. The idea behind this is to have an area where we'll be running games that encourage people to interact with one another. Think giant twister, giant beer pong, etc. The details aren't finalized, but we promise it'll be fun! Beer Games Tent! What beer festival would be complete without the noble sports of beer pong and flip cup? So challenge old friends, or make some new friends. Like with most drinking games, everyone ends up a winner.
