Nottingham Independents' Castle Beer Festival
Friday 14 & Saturday 15 May 2027
Nottingham Castle
Get ready for a weekend of great beer, live music and street food as Castle Beer Fest returns to the beautiful grounds of Nottingham Castle for its third year.
The festival brings together four of Nottinghamshire’s best-known independent breweries – Blue Monkey Brewery, Castle Rock Brewery, Shipstone’s Brewery and Lincoln Green Brewery – showcasing an impressive selection of locally brewed ales, lagers and craft beers.
Alongside the beer, expect live music from local bands, fantastic street food and a spectacular setting overlooking one of Nottingham’s most iconic landmarks.
This year, the festival is also celebrating the sustainability and community spirit of Nottingham’s independent brewing scene. The participating breweries are donating their spent brewers’ grain to help feed the deer at Wollaton Park, giving a useful by-product of the brewing process a second life.
Whether you’re a craft beer enthusiast or simply looking for a fun day out, Castle Beer Fest is a great way to discover Nottingham’s independent brewing scene while enjoying food, music and the atmosphere of Nottingham Castle.
Early bird tickets go on sale on Friday 28 August 2026.
