Berwick Food & Beer Festival

Berwick Food & Beer Festival 2026

Friday 14th – Sunday 16th August

Local Flavours, Craft Beers & Summer Fun on the Parade

Friday 14th – Sunday 16th August 2026

One of the region’s most loved summer events, a weekend of food, drink, music and local creativity set.

This year marks the 20th anniversary of the Berwick Food & Beer Festival, and if last year was anything to go by, festival-goers are in for a treat like no other. The 2025 edition brought together an electrifying mix of music, cabaret, craft drinks, and street food, setting a high bar for the celebrations ahead.

Last year’s festival was a sensory feast. The drag cabaret duo Lourde Godd and Coco stole the show, while DJs and live bands like Muzzle, Circus in the Sky, Hoo Har on Wax, and Ultra Violet kept the crowd dancing long into the evening. Food lovers were spoiled for choice with street eats from Flankman, Chicken Ting, Parm-O-Rama, The Greekster, Well Hung & Tender, and a host of other vendors dishing up everything from indulgent comfort food to bold international flavours. Meanwhile, over 50 stalls in the Producers Market showcased the very best of Northumberland’s local produce and craft, alongside more than 15 brewers and drink vendors pouring craft ales, ciders, and seasonal specialities.

With two decades under its belt, and over 10,000 visitors in 2025, this year’s festival promises to raise the stakes even higher. Expect more live music, even bolder street food creations, and plenty of surprises for families and foodies alike.
