Opening Friday 5 December 2025, Felons Barrel Room will introduce a bold evolution in the brewery’s hospitality and cultural offering, blending barrel-aged beer, Vietnamese cuisine and live music in a dynamic setting. A 700-capacity cultural hub and entertainment venue, Felons Barrel Room will feature a stage, bars and seating for more than 300 diners. The walls will be lined by more than 100 French oak barrels used to age a wide variety of Felons’ beers that will be made on site.

With a world-class audio and lighting system purpose-built for live performance, the venue will host an ongoing program of live music with a focus on local and emerging talent. It will also present themed events such as trivia and movie nights, comedy shows, jazz evenings and intimate “piano bar” gigs. Featuring a sound system by internationally recognised German manufacturer d\&b audiotechnik and a dynamic lighting rig, the acoustically treated space will deliver an experience unmatched on the Northern Beaches.
