Dancing, beer, food and more beer. This sounds like our kind of festival. Visit beautiful Vancouver Island and leave the bustle of the big city for Longwoodstock in Nanaimo. It features small-batch brews from local brewery Longwood Brewery, local bands, artists, and plenty of activities to keep your thirst for adrenaline satisfied, too.

Longwoodstock showcases a selection of the best handcrafted beer from Longwood Brewing. Meet the brewers, sample the latest beer releases and learn about traditional small-batch brewing.

Venues all around downtown Nanaimo get into the spirit of the event with live music on Friday night. On Saturday afternoon, Longwoodstock hits the Longwood Brewery backyard for the biggest party of the summer. Later that night, the festival spills back out into a variety of venues around Nanaimo for the coolest after-parties.
