The Durham Beer Festival is a Campaign for Real Ale festival which aims to promote real ale, cider and traditional British pubs. Attend the Durham Beer Festival held at the Durham City Rugby Football Club to show your support for the campaign or to explore the world of real ale.

The festival will have an excellent range of beers, ciders and perries for visitors to browse, sample and drink. From pale ales and golden ales to IPAs and lager, there will be plenty of choice for real ale enthusiasts. The festival will feature a number of local breweries from the North East of England as well as from across the country.

On entry to the festival, visitors will get a festival glass which is marked with third, half and full pint measurements. This is used throughout the festival so you can sample beers and ciders and get full pints of the ones you like. You can also keep the glass as a souvenir and glass to use at home.

There will also be food available throughout the sessions to help soak up all that ale. So make sure you visit the Durham Beer Festival and drink a great selection of beers and ciders whilst catching up with friends or enjoy the festival buzz.
