The clock is ticking as the deadline for entries to the highly anticipated 2024 Melbourne Royal Australian International Beer Awards (AIBA) rapidly approaches. With just one week left until the closing date on Friday 8 March, now is the time to submit your finest brews and vie for recognition on this prestigious global stage.

Brewing excellence knows no bounds at these Awards, welcoming breweries of every size – from the boutique microbreweries to the titans of large-scale commercial production. Melbourne Royal stands as a global beacon, offering brewers a vital benchmarking opportunity through these prestigious Awards.

Celebrating 30 years in 2023, with record entries and over 900 guests in attendance, the 2023 Australian International Beer Awards toasted the best beers in the world, awarding breweries large and small – including Bailey Brewing Co from Henley Brooke, Western Australia, which took out a number of Gold, Silver and Bronze medals for their range of craft beers. Melbourne Royal spoke with the team.

Melbourne Royal's dedication to delivering outstanding events was acknowledged on a national stage last Thursday 8th June, after taking out the Corporate Event of the Year at the National Meetings & Events Australia (MEA) Awards ceremony held at The Star on the Gold Coast.

The 2023 Australian International Beer Awards have been run and won for another year and it was a case of history repeating itself as Ballarat-based brewery Dollar Bill Brewing took out their second Champion Australian Beer in just three years.
