About this festival

Get yourself to Tunbridge Wells to enjoy a long and unforgettable weekend at our 5-mile-long Real Ale & Cider Festival! The beers are racked, tapped and ready to serve in a glass of your choice!

Returning from 15th to 18th October 2026, will see a great gathering of 230 Real Ales, and we will aim for 40 of the famous Kent Green Hop Beers, too! See below for further details on what makes Green Hops extra special and this festival so unique.

Complimenting the fine ales and green hops will be 14 Keg Beers and 80 Ciders, making this one of the largest events of its kind in the UK!

The doors open at 6 pm on Thursday, 15th October 2026 – Entry is FREE!
