A massive festival has returned to Pier 4 Park in Hamilton for the weekend, focusing on music and some cold beverages.

Because Beer kicks off at 4 p.m. on Friday and runs until Sunday and will take over the field at the bottom of Leander Drive for three days of live music, food, and events.

This year the festival will feature some big-name acts, like Billy Talent, Tokyo Police Club and Canadian punk-rock band PUP, alongside other Ontario locals like Cancer Bats, Chasity and Born in the Eighties.

There will also be tons of award-winning breweries and cideries set up at the event, offering the public a chance to meet some of the faces behind their favorite Ontario craft beverages.

Single-day tickets can be purchased online and start at $45 for single-day admission, and $99 for a weekend pass.
