Australia’s beloved brewer Young Henrys has been named the official beer partner for the Sydney leg of Laneway Festival 2026.
The partnership will see Young Henrys pouring its range of beers and ginger beer throughout the day and night at the Sydney event, taking place on Sunday 8 February at Centennial Park, Laneway’s long-time home in NSW.
Festival-goers can expect a familiar lineup from the Inner West brewer, from its Ginger Beer during the day to Newtowner Pale Ale as the night rolls on, positioning the brand as a natural fit for Laneway’s mix of live music, culture and community.
A natural alignment with Sydney’s creative scene
Young Henrys co-founder Oscar McMahon said the partnership reflects the brand’s roots in Sydney’s creative subcultures.
“We built the Young Henrys brand finding like minded people in the creative, wild worlds of the many sub cultures of this city. Laneway Festival is an iconic expression of this very ideal and we are so grateful that we will be the beer cooling the hands of the likeminded at Laneway Sydney 2026,” McMahon said.
Longstanding support of music and arts
After more than a decade operating in Sydney’s Inner West, Young Henrys has built a reputation as a consistent supporter of Australian music, arts and culture.
The brewer has long aligned itself with live music, from local pub gigs to major festivals, including previous appearances at Laneway and SXSW Sydney.
The Laneway partnership continues that strategy, placing the brand front and centre at a major cultural event with a strong youth and music-focused audience.
