The Beer Footy & Food Festival - Newtown
Saturday July 26 Henson Park: The Jets Take Flight
The second event returns to our spiritual home at Henson Park on Saturday 26th July 2025, where the mighty Newtown Jets will face off against the St George Illawarra Dragons, preceded by exciting curtain raiser matches and other entertainment.
When you walk through the gates of Henson Park, it's like travelling back in time, and we're bringing back all the elements that make this event special. An impressive lineup of 30+ brewers and food vendors will be on hand (to be announced), along with the fan-favourite Pro Wrestling Australia (PWA) legends who'll be taking the big hits to the next level.
Kids will have a blast in the inflatable land, while DJs keep the atmosphere pumping throughout the day. And making its debut in 2025 – the infamous half-time streaker bullrush – a brand new entertainment spectacle that's guaranteed to become a beloved tradition of the festival!
More Than Just Footy:
In the era of big stadia, the Beer Footy & Food Festival is a step back in time to when going to the footy was a weekly ritual to look forward to, a day out for family and friends to sit on the hill, to throw the footy around at half time and to watch a bit of footy every now and again.
The Beer Footy and Food Festival is more than just an epic day out, it's a way of life! Bringing together footy fans, beer enthusiasts and foodies for a shared experience. Each event boasts a curated selection of local craft breweries showcasing their finest brews and a range of gourmet food stalls to tantalize your tastebuds…plus plenty of other surprises along the way!
