Manchester Beer Festivals 2026

This year, we are changing up the legendary Bolton Beer Festival to make it even BIGGER and even BETTER - introducing even more memorable experiences and live music to make your weekend one to remember. Beers, Ciders, Gins, Spirits, Wines, Non-Alcoholic Attracting over 200 beers, wines & spirits and over 8000 people for the three-day festival. Live Music There will be a band playing live music at the Friday and Saturday evening sessions. It really gets the mood lively and adds a fun twist on a memorable night out.

Each year it’s grown little by little, but this year we’re going ALL OUT. We’ve turned this year’s Harvest Festival into a massive celebration of fresh hops & cask ale. We invited our friends from up and down the country to send us their best fresh hop beers so we can house them all under one roof, the pop-up Track Tavern. 🍻

The Didsbury Beer Festival is back again. There are 4 sessions. Get your tickets here to be sure of joining us at this popular Didsbury community event with a great collection of cask and keg beers and ciders and perries, supporting local charities.
