Nottingham Craft Beer Festival
Nottingham Craft Beer Festival (NCBF) takes place in June each year at Sneinton Market Avenues, a large outdoor location in Nottingham City Centre.
NCBF was born off the back of Nottingham Craft Beer Week, a pub-led movement which ran from 2013-2022 and in 2020 won awards from SIBA for being the best craft beer promotion in the UK. Unfortunately due to funding cuts Nottingham Craft Beer Week was discontinued after 2022, but the festival continued.
We can’t wait to attend this wonderful festival, the line up so far is amazing, follow them on socials to find out who else will be attending!
