ABOUT THE VENUE
RUBY FEST HAS MADE SOME LAST MINUTE CHANGES. DUE TO UNAVOIDABLE AND UNFORTUNATE EVENTS THAT ARE OUT OF OUR CONTROL, WE HAVE HAD TO MOVE THIS YEARS FESTIVAL. BUT FRET NOT, NOT MUCH CHANGES. THE NEW ADDRESS FOR RUBY FEST 2026 IS FREELYCRAFT BREWERY, 21A WRIGHT STREET, FACTORIA, KRUGERSDORP - JUST A FEW MILES FROM WHERE IT WOULD ORIGINALLY HAVE HELD.
Nestled in the heart of Krugersdorp, Freely Craft is more than a brewery — it’s a gathering place where community, creativity, and craft collide. We serve up handcrafted beers brewed with passion, hearty comfort foods that warm the soul, and a lineup of live music and events that keep the vibe alive. From jam nights and karaoke to seasonal specials and local collaborations, every visit offers something different. Freely Craft is built on flavor, atmosphere, and the people who make it feel like home."
