OCBC is Canada’s largest craft brewing industry annual conference and trade show. With the growth of the craft brewing sector in the past two decades, there are now hundreds of operating breweries, contract brewers and brewpubs in communities across the province. 

 

As thriving local businesses and community social hubs, craft breweries are generators of social and economic connections. This culture of connection and social interaction is foundational for building strong communities, healthy relationships, and local development. 

 

OCBC provides an opportunity for craft community builders to connect face-to-face and work together to facilitate collaboration and revitalization of the industry. The event gives attendees an opportunity to join forces, share information, and network with industry members, suppliers, and stakeholders.

 

OCBC is Canada’s ultimate networking and education event, attracting craft brewers and industry suppliers from across North America. Brewery principals, staff and suppliers will meet, connect, network, learn and conduct more business in two+ days than could be possible in several months.

​

Our 11th annual conference and marketplace will take place in Niagara Falls, Ontario on October 25 & 26, 2023.
