Northallerton Craft Beer Festival 2027
🍻 Bayonet Brewing Presents: Northallerton Craft Beer Festival 2027! 🍻
Northallerton’s ultimate summer party is BACK! After two consecutive years of amazing crowds and incredible vibes, we are returning to The Forum for our third massive edition!
As Northallerton’s only brewery, Bayonet Brewing started this festival to turn our town into a premier craft beer destination. Thanks to your support, NCBF has become the weekend of the summer and so we are back, bigger and louder for 2027 in support of the Indie Beer Campaign! Once again hosted by our legendary pal Kam (@Beerguideworldwide), you can expect an unmatched crowd, an electric atmosphere and a weekend-long party across two epic sessions!

Expect multiple fully stocked bars to explore, featuring:
- Incredible Craft Beer served directly by the teams who brew it.
- The Return of the Cider Hub slinging local favourites and guest ciders.
- Spirits & Fizz Station bursting with premium gin, rum and prosecco.

We've got some massive musical announcements and extra surprises to share very soon!

Think of it as the ultimate town-wide warm-up party.
Expect a massive week of Tap Takeovers, Meet the Brewer events, exclusive guest lines and beer-fuelled surprises around every corner. Best of all? Every single event during Beer Week is completely free to attend, building up to the main festival weekend! We are keeping our 2027 venue lineups under wraps for now, but you can expect our absolute favourite local spots to be turning up the energy. In the past, we’ve seen epic takeovers like Azvex and Deya at Origin, Rooster's Brew Co invading The Stumble Inn, Amity Brew Co taking over the lines at The Oddfellows Arms and Vaux running things at The Golden Lion Hotel!
