Liverpool's beer festival scene

Liverpool's festivals carry the same warmth as a night out in the city, with the Baltic Triangle at the heart of it. Expect a compact, walkable scene and a friendly crowd.

Old warehouse units and waterfront venues host events through the year, from tap takeovers to larger ticketed festivals. The scene is small enough to feel personal but lively enough to fill a weekend.

Get to know the local brewers on our Liverpool breweries guide, then see what else is on across the North.
