Beer Can Regatta Mindil Beach 2026

The Darwin Lions Beer Can Regatta is an annual event not to be missed!

This iconic annual family fun event of Darwin was established in 1974 and is an event for all to use your imagination to design a vessel from cans as well as plastic bottles or milk cartons as long as it floats.

There is plenty of activities for the kids and a fun day out. The day includes individual and team Boat Races, as well as sandcastle building, thong throwing competitions, Ironman and other races and many other beach events.

While you're there, don't forget to check out the incredible food vendors, local makers and market stalls at the Mindil Beach Sunset Markets throughout the day!
