Guangzhou might not be able to double as Qingdao, where China’s busiest and most-famous beer festival is held, but it’s going to be giving it a shot.

The south gate of Tianhe Sports Centre is going to transform into a giant beer garden on Friday July 8 complete with a wide selection of international beers, a barbeque, live music performances and even a parade. The festival will run all the way until Tuesday July 19.

In coordination with local government, the annual festival will showcase more than 20 famous brands worldwide.
