How does it work?

The basic format of the festival requires a single participant to run a quarter mile after drinking a pint of beer. The participant must repeat this process three times, to complete the mile. However, if you’re not up for running an entire mile, don’t worry! As this is the first time Beer Mile is coming to India, the organizers have arranged three formats for this edition. If you’re up for a full-on challenge, then you can opt for the Full Beer Mile. If you prefer to run half the distance at double the fun, you can choose the Half Beer Mile. For those of you who would like to approach the run from a more chilled out angle, you can opt for the Team Run and share your beer with your friends too!

What’s awesome is that each formatΒ will be timed, givingΒ you the opportunity toΒ be the champion of the first-ever Beer Mile India and guaranteeing an action-packed adventure across formats.
