RAB Fest 2026

RAB Fest 2026

Reading Amateur Brewers proudly present RAB Fest the sequel - a one-day celebration of great beer, grassroots brewing, and community spirit.

Your ticket (£15 early bird, £17.50 full price) includes a custom RAB Fest drinking vessel and the opportunity to sample home-brewed beer from champion brewers across the UK. Expect everything from classic styles to experimental pours.

There’ll be informal talks and demos throughout the day, covering judging, homebrew techniques, and the journey from amateur to professional brewing. After last years tug-of-war, we will extend our repotoir of family friendly games.

RAB Fest is strictly DIY when it comes to food: we'll have some snacks and soft drinks available plus basic kitchen facilities but you're welcome to order in or bring your own picnic/BBQ/pizza oven.

Tickets are for adults only. Children are welcome to attend for free, so long as they are with a paying responsible adult.
