About this festival

Boring beer festivals? Not on our watch. We’ve taken the beer festival rulebook, set it on fire and launched it out of a confetti cannon. Craft Brew Festival isn’t like any other beer festival - it’s five hours of full-throttle, all-in, party-mode madness with bottomless craft beer, cider, wine, non-alcoholic beer, soft drinks and prosecco. No faff. No overpriced drink tokens. Just pure, unfiltered fun.

2025 was epic… but 2026 is set to be next-level!
Thanks to your feedback, we’re cranking up the party vibes in Manchester like never before.
