Pendle Beer Festival 2026

We are delighted that Pendle Beer Festival will return to the recently refurbished Muni Theatre in Colne from 29th to 31st January 2026
This will be the 19th edition of the festival and we hope you will join us to enjoy a wide range of real ales, craft beers and ciders from all around the country – there's sure to be something that hits the spot!
Over 80 real ales will be available to sample, and judging by our regular excellent attendance, people certainly appreciate the care and attention CAMRA volunteers give to serving beer in tip top form. We'll have our usual range of real ciders and perries, a fine selection of KeyKeg craft beer for your delectation and of course the gin and prosecco bar!
Locals and visitors alike will be pleased to know The Muni, managed by Pendle Leisure Trust, is once again available as our long-standing venue. We hope to ensure that everyone who comes enjoys the event and supports the Pendleside Hospice fund-raising events we have planned.

Thursday 29th 1.00pm* - 11.00pm
