24th - 25th April

The Nottingham Independents' Castle Beer Festival is back for 2026, and will see Nottingham’s independent breweries once again taking over the iconic Nottingham Castle for a weekend of great beer, local talent, and unbeatable views across the city.

After a hugely popular first year, the festival returns with even more to enjoy, including an expanded programme which now features a Saturday daytime session as well as the usual evening slots over the weekend.
