Stockport Beer & Cider Festival 2026
Stockport Beer and Cider Festival will be running from 18th to 20th June at the Stockport Guild Hall. Bolton Branch is running a trip to the festival on Friday 19th June – see our Social Events pages – but for those members attending under their own steam please note the following important information:
In order to avail yourselves of free entry to the festival you either need to attend the trade and CAMRA members session 3.30pm to 5.30pm on 18th June (NB once in they can stay for the subsequent public session) or purchase an advance package (free entry+£10 beer/cider tokens and a £4 glass which is refundable) for a public session at www.stockportfestival.org.uk – the entry packages for walk ups at public sessions will not include free entry. The organisers have done this to enable us to control numbers within the fire limit and encourage the use of Tckty.
