Celebrate 10 years of Pirate Life with beers and legendary bands including Pennywise

It’s official, Pirate Life Brewery is turning 10, and to mark a decade of success in the brewing industry, the business is throwing their biggest birthday bash yet. On March 1st, 2025, with their fantastic Port Adelaide venue providing an idyllic backdrop, it’ll be a celebration of everything the brand holds dear, with a delightful selection of beers and two legendary punk bands taking the stage.

As part of the festivities, a selection of 24 iconic Pirate Life beers will be on offer, including ten chosen by you, the public. With ten choices from the crew’s shortlist of one hundred, it’s up to you to make your selections count. What’s more? By voting for your favourite brews, you’ll enter the running for two double VIP passes valued at $500, which includes complementary ticket entry, beer, and food.

So, who’s on the bill? Well, for fans of punk rock, this is definitely the occasion for you. American punk rock icons Pennywise, formed in California in 1998, will be taking the stage as one of the co-headliners. With an army of dedicated fans, influential albums like 1992’s seminal About Time, and their customarily high-energy live shows, Pennywise have placed themselves at the forefront of the global punk rock scene.

By the same token, co-headliners Millencolin stand deservedly beside them. Celebrated for their slick, melodic punk rock anthems, the Swedish punk rock legends have mastered the balance between humour and serious themes. Their high-tempo live shows are full of energy, memorable hooks, and the tried-and-tested skate-punk and ska-punk that’s served them well for years

“We’re stoked to be hosting these bands. Their no bullshit approach and propensity for a good time definitely mirrors our own.”

The two bands will be hitting Pirate Life’s venue in Port Adelaide as part of their co-headline tour of Australia in early 2025. As part of this run of shows down under, the pair will also be travelling to Wollongong, Newcastle, Sunshine Coast, Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, and Perth.

The full lineup of artists is set to be announced in the coming weeks, but if it’s anything like previous Pirate Life birthday parties, fans can expect a feast of homegrown South Australian talent to support the international punk heavyweights.

Attendees can also expect live art, amazing local food, roaming entertainment, and much, much more.

So save the date, because Pirate Life’s 10th birthday party on March 1st is certainly not one to miss.
