Pint of Origin 2026 In The Media

May 11, 2026, by Crafty Pint

We've got street posters up, plus posters, coasters and postcards in venues across Melbourne, and we're hitting the press too!

It's always good to see beer make the media for positive reasons – not least after the past few challenging years – and we've been lucky enough to garner some great coverage for Pint of Origin over the years.

That's the case again in 2026, with the festival set to land on the major TV channels across the opening weekend and racking up appearances in online and print media too.

At time of writing, you might have spotted Pint of Origin in the likes of Time Out Melbourne, Boothby, Broadsheet and the Herald Sun, or on 3AW and ABC Melbourne.

Wherever you spot us, we look forward to spotting you at one of the 20-plus host venues enjoying incredible beers and experiences, and making new friends along the way.

And don't forget: the best way to Pint of Origin is with a free digital Passport!
