Cancelled: Cambridge Beer Festival Winter 2022

We’re extremely sorry to announce that this year’s winter beer festival will not go ahead. We are very sad about this, and no doubt our customers, suppliers and volunteers are too. However, with under a month to go, there are still too many unresolved issues with our transition to a new venue.

With the closure of the University Social Club during the pandemic we knew we had to find a new venue for the winter festival. We thought we’d found such a venue in the Guildhall, although we expected the transition to be difficult. But we’ve now passed the point where we had to commit to spending substantial amounts with suppliers, and we still don’t have solutions to a number of issues.

The one piece of good news here is that the issues that have affected this festival don’t affect our main festival in May. Planning for that began in August.

Thanks to all the volunteers who’ve spent a great deal of time trying to make the festival happen.
