Felons Manly marks first anniversary with “One Year of Beers” birthday bash and beer garden launch

A COMMUNITY BIRTHDAY BASH AND THE OFFICIAL LAUNCH OF THE BEER GARDEN AND PLAYGROUND 

Locals and visitors are invited to enjoy a full day of art, music and family fun by the water. Highlights include live surfboard painting by local artists Tylah Saunders, Amanda Tye, Jamie Browne, Fun Skull and Ben Brown, with all boards auctioned via silent auction to raise funds for the Lifeline Classic.

Guests can also look forward to free kids’ face painting from 11am-3pm, DJs on the jetty from 3pm, a giant Felons beer-can birthday cake and a premium CopperTree Farms meat tray raffle supporting local charities.

The full Felons Manly menu will be available throughout the day, including rotisserie grill dishes from the Jetty Bar and a dedicated kids’ menu.

Felons Brewing Co. continues its mission to create welcoming, community-minded venues. The new beer garden and deck extension further enhance the beachside experience, creating a relaxed, family-friendly haven where everyone, from kids to grandparents and even pets, feels at home. Centred around a giant interactive play ship inspired by the story of the four felons who set sail from Sydney in 1823, the space nods to the brand’s heritage and spirit of adventure and discovery.
