Our mission is to refresh the community.
At Upstreet, we believe in community as much as we believe in making the best possible beer. From our yearly Block Parties, to our Christmas Tree lightings, to our Do Good Fund, we believe refreshing the community is vital.
We’re proud that our Taproom is a meeting place for friends and family to get together for a bite to eat or a board game and a pint; for locals to gather to celebrate big successes and little moments. Our community is as big as a part of our story as we are a part of our community.
We love working with community groups in fundraisers and events, from big catered dinners to small benefits and trivia nights.
Need a place to hold your fundraiser? We open up our Taproom to hosting community events at no cost. For more information, email us.
Donation and Sponsorship Requests
Though priority is given to the Do Good Fund, we are happy to support local fundraisers. We review donation requests once a month. You can fill out a our donation request form and we’ll get back to you if you’re successful! Please note we do receive a high volume of requests.
We also review sponsorship proposals once a month. You can email your proposal to us and we’ll get back to you if we can make it work. Please include as much detail as possible.
It’s year 5 of the Block Party, so you know we’re gonna do something epic.
The Block Party has become Upstreet’s signature summer event and we can’t wait for August 17th starting at noon. It’s free and open to all ages, and it’s our way of giving back to this amazing neighbourhood and Island community.
It’s a day of fun with live music, beer garden, food vendors, goats from Island Hill Farm, live art, lawn games, kids activities and more. We’re also launching community art projects – come and add your personal touch to a greater piece that will be created 100% by the glorious folks in our community (because it takes us all to make this place great!).
…Also, even though we party rain or shine, if you could send positive vibes for no rain, that’d be swell ✌️

SIGNATURE COMMUNITY ART PROJECT:
Do Good Day PEI. People will be welcomed into a tent with hanging envelopes. In each envelope is a suggestion on a little thing to brighten someone’s day or make the Island a better place. To get one, you must first fill out your own card with a random act of good, place it in an envelope, and hang it for someone else. Then, on September 17th for Do Good Day, everyone with an envelope will open to reveal their random act of good they’ve been assigned and complete it. We’re aiming for 300 random acts of good done on September 17th!
If you’d like to volunteer for the Block Party, please email Jaz at events(at)upstreet.ca.
SEE YOU AUGUST 17TH!
