Chelmsford Summer Beer & Cider Festival

Tue 15 - Sat 19 July 2025

Admirals Park, Chelmsford

The Chelmsford Beer & Cider Festival is an annual event celebrating a diverse selection of real ales, ciders, perries, and other beverages. The 2025 festival is scheduled to take place from July 15th to 19th at Admirals Park in Chelmsford.

Attendees can expect over 250 real ales and 50 ciders, along with other drink options such as gin, wine, and non-alcoholic beverages. The festival also features a variety of food stalls and live music performances throughout the event.

The festival operates on a token system for drink purchases, with drinks priced similarly to local pub rates. Drinks are available in pint, half-pint, and third-pint measures, allowing attendees to sample a wide range of offerings. Soft drinks are available free of charge, with a suggested donation to the festival's charity partner.

As the festival is held outdoors, attendees are encouraged to bring their own chairs and blankets, although some seating will be provided. For the most up-to-date information, including volunteer opportunities and ticket details, visit the official festival website.
