The Belgian Beer Garden at PAC Shopping Center is returning for its third edition this September, offering more than 80 Belgian beers, European fare, DJ performances, and interactive games over two weekends.

Last year's festival attracted approximately 15,000 visitors, who drank about 30,000 cups of beer. This year's edition is larger in scale, with more participating brands and a broader selection of food.

Visitors can choose from a range of beer styles, including refreshing wheat beers, golden ales, Tripels, Quadrupels, fruit beers, abbey beers, and naturally fermented Lambics.

The selection includes Belgian beers such as Blanche de Bruges, Brugse Zot, and Straffe Hendrik, as well as Kasteel, known for its robust brews. Chimay, a Trappist beer brand; Vedett; and Delirium, famous for its signature Pink Elephant, will also be available. Additionally, Fruli, Boon, and Timmermans are part of the lineup, along with local Shanghai craft beer brands.

The event will offer Belgian fries, mussels, waffles, sausages, pizza, burgers, barbecue skewers, Belgian chocolate, cocktails, and more.

International DJs will perform throughout the event, alongside European-style beer games and prize giveaways.
