The Edinburgh Craft Beer Festival returns on 20th and 21st August, reuniting beer lovers, foodies, and music fans at the Corn Exchange.
The 2021 festival will host more than 30 world-class breweries, pouring hundreds of beers from across Europe.
Alongside the drinks offering, a tasty selection of Edinburgh’s top foodies will be bringing dishes to festival-goers, including Fat Flamingo (nachos and hotdogs), Harajuku Kitchen (Japanese), and Rost.
Headliner music acts spinning the decks include Fat White Family (DJ set), Friendly Fires (DJ set), Doves (DJ set) ft Jez Williams, Hip-Hop Karaoke, David Ballantyne, and Keir Reid
More breweries, food vendors, and music acts will be announced over the coming weeks on all festival social channels and the website, where you can also buy tickets.
Greg Wells, founder of organiser We Are Beer, said: “We Are Beer are delighted to bring our big celebration of all things beer, food, and music back to Edinburgh at the brilliant Corn Exchange.
“We cannot wait to welcome back our Edinburgh festival regulars and meet our new attendees to come together once again to enjoy the best drinks and food around.
“I’m also thrilled to add new breweries to our festival family this year, including local brewery Newbarns, who launched in Leith last year, from across the water Maltgarden, from Poland, and Seven Island Brewery, from Greece. We hope to see you all there at our safe and friendly festival this August.”
