GULPfest 2025: Singapore’s Riverside Beer Festival Debuts June 21 with 12 Top Breweries and Unlimited Pours

Singapore’s beer scene is about to get a refreshing twist. With the early-summer beer festival calendar sitting surprisingly dry, GULP Taproom is stepping up with the launch of its inaugural GULPfest—a riverside celebration of all things craft beer—happening this 21 June 2025.

Set along the banks of the Kallang River, GULPfest draws inspiration from the tasting-session style festivals popular in Europe and the US. The format gives beer lovers a chance to sip and savour dozens of exceptional brews from around the world—all in one buzzing afternoon or evening session.

What to Expect

• 12 standout breweries—both local gems and international favourites—will be pouring from 21 rotating taps throughout the day.
• Participating countries include Japan, UK, Australia, Spain, Germany, Latvia, Sweden, Taiwan, and more.
• A special spotlight on award-winning home brewers, curated by Craft Beer Asia.
• Unlimited pours are included with each ticket—yours for just $99 per session, or $190 for both.
• Afternoon session: 1–5pm | Evening session: 6–10pm
