Local businesses benefit from new pourage rights at Manuka Oval
Spectators at Manuka Oval this summer will be able to experience a taste of Canberra at the venue, with local brewers BentSpoke and Capital Brewing Co signing on under new pourage rights across the eight matches.
It represents a major milestone for the local brewers, making it easier for spectators to support two of Canberra’s best local businesses at Manuka Oval.
In an Australian first, the two local brewers have been awarded pourage rights at Manuka Oval alongside multinational Lion, instead of exclusive rights being granted to a single supplier.
Spectators now have a wider choice of local and national brands during Canberra’s summer of cricket.
BentSpoke will supply the Beer Garden and an outlet behind the scoreboard, Capital Brewing will operate outlets on both sides of the Menzies Terrace and Lion will service the Mid-Wicket Deck and an outlet on the western side of the oval.
Spectators who are legally able to drink alcohol can now responsibly enjoy an excellent selection of quality beers and ciders.
Canberrans are reminded to drink in moderation, observe physical distancing requirements and follow the venue’s COVID Safe guidelines.
The supply term applies to the 2020/2021 summer cricket season.

A new COVID Safe Event Protocol has been developed by the ACT Government to assist with returning events to the ACT.
The new protocol outlines how public community events for more than 100 people at public venues can be held while COVID-19 restrictions remain in place, and how to apply for the necessary exemption for the event.
It includes information on the types of events that will be able to take place in the ACT and remain COVID Safe.
Event organisers should reference the following documents:
1. COVID Safe Event Protocol – Guides event organisers through and outlines information about the exemption process.
2. Industry factsheet – Organising an Event – Key information to help plan an event in the ACT.

The Federal Government has endorsed advice to introduce further social distancing measures. This includes the requirement that non-essential organised outdoor public gatherings of more than 500 people, and non-essential indoor gatherings of more than 100 people, should not occur. For indoor events with under 100 people, there must be a density of no more than one person per four square metres of floor space, and venues should continue to apply social distancing and hygiene practices. This includes being able to maintain a distance of 1.5 metres between patrons.
We want to reassure Canberrans that we are very well placed to manage the outbreak of COVID-19 here in the ACT, and we will continue to assess the implementation of public health measures in a proportionate manner. For the latest updates on COVID-19 in the ACT, visit https://health.act.gov.au
