Electric City is back, and this year it’s set to be bigger than ever as the team at Bionic Brew celebrates their 10th anniversary with their largest festival to date!
We’ve got all the info including dates, times, early bird tickets, and the full list of breweries, plus make sure to read until the end of this article to find out how you can win four full weekend passes to the 10th annual Shenzhen Craft Beer Festival!
The Electric City Festival was founded way back in 2015 by the team at Bionic Brew, and gets its nickname as the 'Shenzhen Craft Beer Fest' through its standing as the very first festival in the region focused exclusively on local Chinese craft beer.
In 2018, the festival changed its name to 'Electric City Festival' to reflect the fast-paced lifestyle, meteoric growth, and the special place that Shenzhen holds as the world’s high-tech capital, and for Bionic Brew's idea that the festival serves the purpose of "connecting the original local forces,” bringing the entire community together.
This year, starting on Friday, November 1, the festival is back and bigger than ever in a brand new Futian location, with even more awesome breweries from all across China, allowing you to meet and greet the best brewers in the country and try the best of their beers!
