Hopfest 2026 - Preston Grasshoppers Beer, Gin and Music Festival

Join us for a fabulous weekend of beer, gin and cider plus fantastic live music.

Running from Friday July 10th and Saturday July 11th, Hopfest offers a great venue to spend time with family, work colleagues and friends and enjoy the sociable atmosphere that's synonymous with this popular annual event.

We have a number of beers on tap to choose from, a range of ciders, plus a selection of gins. And of course - our regular list of lagers and spirits in our main bar. With food vendors onsite as well, and live entertainment and a touch rugby tournament - there's something for everyone!

Don't miss out, tickets need to be booked in advance and this popular event nearly always sells out!

Entry includes a commemorative glass with beers list and tasting notes.
