About Midsummer Beer Happening

The Midsummer Beer Happening is a lively three‑day craft beer festival held each June in Stonehaven’s Baird Park, bringing together 150+ beers and ciders, artisan street food, live music, and a popular cycling sportive.

🍺 What the festival offers
- Huge beer selection — Over 150 beers and ciders from top UK brewers, covering everything from bright, fruity ciders to rich, dark stouts.
- Great food — Wood‑fired pizza, Spanish bocadillos and empanadas, award‑winning fish and chips, and the well‑known Giulianotti ice cream.
- Live music — Local musicians perform throughout the day, with a more upbeat, party vibe in the evenings.
- Cycling sportive — A signature part of the event, offering scenic and challenging routes through Deeside and the Cairn o’Mount, ending back at the festival for a celebratory pint.

🎉 Atmosphere and purpose
The festival is known for its friendly, community‑driven feel and its “no ordinary” approach to food, drink, and entertainment. It’s run as a not‑for‑profit event, raising money for local charities and good causes in Stonehaven.
