Beer Festivals in Europe
By FOMO Girl
The typical brew festival brings together regional, national, or international brewers and offers them the opportunity to show off their products to members of the public. Attendees always have the chance to enjoy tasting various brews and even have the opportunity to purchase their favorites. While Oktoberfest is the most popular of all such events, there are many other beer festivals in Europe offering brew lovers a similar experience.

Brewers in Belgium produce more than 400 varieties of this popular beverage and some are famous worldwide. Individuals traveling in this region will find several different events in Antwerp, Luxembourg, Wibrin, and other places around the country. The festival in Bruges, as well as the one in Sohier, takes place in February but there are many others during the summer months.

The Czech Beer Festival in Prague takes place over 17 days in May. Attendees can sample more than 70 brands poured by servers wearing traditional Czech clothing. In addition to the brews, attendees have the opportunity to sample the wares provided by Czech bakers, butchers and chefs. Entertainers perform live music daily. Admission is free on weekdays until 2 pm.

The Latvia Beer Fest is the largest event of its kind in the Baltics. Organizers welcome participation from brewers around the world, including those from Mexico, Poland, Russia, England, and Belarus. The event is held at Vermanes garden in May each year and lasts for three days.

Usce Park in Serbia in mid-August is the place for brew lovers to gather for the annual Belgrade Beer Fest. Approximately 700,000 visitors enjoy this party, which features live music performances. Organizers have presented this event annually since 2003 and admission is free.

The annual Cannstatter Volksfest in Stuttgart Germany starts in late September and continues over three weekends until the second Sunday each October. This event draws approximately four million attendees and dates back to 1818 when it lasted a single day and attracted over 30,000 visitors. Attendees can visit seven large tents for brew tasting opportunities. Other attractions include fairground rides, fireworks, a parade, and an agriculture exhibition.

Corfu Microbrewery in Corfu Greece hosts the annual Corfu Beer Festival during mid-October. Guests enjoy music, dance, and food along with brew tasting opportunities. Local vendors exhibit their wares with presentations and educational seminars prepared by local chefs.

Many different tour operators offer organized trips to various European festivals. Some companies are dedicated specifically to catering to beer lovers allowing them to enjoy several events during their trip. Most provide inclusive tours that cover all transportation, hotel accommodations, and admission to the various festivals. Travelers can also arrange for transportation by rail or airline to the starting point for the tours. These organized tours offer the ideal way to enjoy the libations along the way while leaving the driving to the professionals. Some operators provide local guides to show guests around the various cities allowing them to become acquainted with the local culture through pub crawls and trips to breweries where they can interact with brew masters and learn more about what goes into producing their favorite beverage.
