Lymm Beer & Gin Festival

The Lymm Beer & Gin Festival, organised by the Lymm & District Round Table in collaboration with Lymm Ladies, is a popular two-day summer event held at Lymm Village Hall in Cheshire.

It brings together a carefully curated selection of over 35–40 drinks, including real ales (primarily cask), artisan ciders and perries, and about 40 gins, offering something for every palate.

With entry typically priced at £6—covering a commemorative festival glass—the event uses a token system (£2 per token), making it easy to enjoy half- and full-pints of beer or diverse gin servings, while soft drinks remain complimentary.

More than just drinks, the festival fosters a lively and friendly village atmosphere. Expect live music from local bands, tasty hot and cold food, and community spirit as funds benefit local charities.

A “Sponsors’ Evening” kicks off the festival, with daytime family-friendly sessions following—though the main draw is the convivial mingling among locals. Over the years, it has grown into one of Lymm’s key annual gatherings, celebrated as a “once-a-year pilgrimage” for drink lovers while supporting community causes.

All in all, the festival offers an authentic village experience—a laid-back celebration of quality drinks, local entertainment, and warm community vibes, perfect for sampling fine ales, discovering craft gins, and supporting local good causes. Cheers to that!
