Held annually since 2015, the Gifu Beer Festival aims to promote regional revitalization through good brews and good food. The three-day event is set to highlight the prefecture's beer and restaurant industries, and there will be a variety of drinks and dishes to try.
There is no admission fee to enjoy the atmosphere of the event, but food and drink purchases work off a ticketing system. On the day tickets start from 3000 JPY which includes six coupons for the eats and drinks of your choice.
If you do plan on attending, please note that the event runs from 11am until 7pm on the first two days, but wraps up at 5pm on the final day.
Getting there
Kasamatsu Minato Park can be accessed via a shuttle service from either Kasamatsu Station (Meitetsu Nagoya Main Line and Meitetsu Takehana Line), or Nishi-Kasamatsu Station (Meitetsu Takehana Line). Alternatively, from either station it's around 15 minutes on foot to the venue.
