The Beast team may have missed their official birthday, but the celebrations are far from over.

It’s time to mark their 12th and a bit birthday with a bang, and they’re throwing a massive bonanza to do it right.

During the final weekend of August, they’re packing in four days of fun with some of their favorite acts. The long weekend kicks off on Thursday at 8 p.m. with Deep Fried Comedy. Friday night brings Barefoot Spacemen and Busted Chops at 9 p.m.

The Beast’s 12 birthday

  • A four-day bonanza from Thursday August 29 to Sunday September 2
  • Barefoot Spacemen, Busted Chops, My Safe Word Is Murder and many more
  • 100 free burgers and plenty of drinks specials

Saturday is stacked with A Gazillion Angry Mexicans, My Safe Word Is Murder, Blue Tongue Wizard and the Voice of Melbourne himself on MC duties. The festivities conclude with a craft-ernoon hosted by Ride A Cowboy on Sunday from 3-5 p.m.

But that’s not all. Throughout the week, they’ll be giving away 100 free burgers (stay tuned for more details) and epic prizes on Saturday night from Billy Bones Club, Baron Von Dabbins and more. The celebrations are made even better with support from Baxter Vodka, Ojala Tequila and Local Brewing.
