Phillips Backyard Music Festival is almost here and yep - Sunday tickets + weekend passes are already gone! Consider this your friendly nudge to get on it.

If Father John Misty, Chance The Rapper, Sudan Archives, and a sun-soaked Victoria weekend sound like your vibe, now’s the time to lock in tickets before the rest disappear too. Cold beer, warm days, live music - summer is almost here! You can grab that Phillips beer right now though…*
