Welcome Welcome to Nottingham Craft Beer Festival 2021.

As you can imagine organising this year has been challenging. So much has changed since June 2019 that it’s like starting out all over again.

Thanks for sticking with us!

We are very glad to be back and happy to have a great selection of local and national breweries showing off their latest creations. Plus we have great food stalls thanks to Nottingham Street Food Club, our all new merch stand and our resident Sneinton Marketeers providing something a bit different to browse while you sup.

If you encounter teething problems at the event please bear with us and our staff. We’ve implemented a number of COVID specific changes that we hope will not impact your enjoyment of the event, we will be doing everything we can to ensure everything runs smoothly.

Once again you can find our beer list on Untappd (tinyurl.com/ncbf2beers), please check in and leave feedback on the beers you try there.

We would very much like your general feedback after the event. Please tell us what you thought when we get the form out to you via our ticketing partners Gigantic after the festival.

We wish you a happy and safe festival!

Al, Adam, Gareth and Jared Nottingham Craft Beer Festival Organisers
