Adel Beer Festival is back again for 2026 after another successful 2025 festival. It is run yearly by willing volunteers from Adel Cricket Club and regularly sees circa 1000 people to the Adel Sports and Social Club over a 3 day period. For the first time in 2026, the Festival is being held over August Bank Holiday weekend, meaning it will be open until late all 3 days!

DRINKS

With 12 Cask Ales, 2 keg walls with 14 beers, fruity ciders and a mix of gins and tonics, there is something for everyone. For the non-alcoholic lovers, there will be a range of non-alcoholic Beers, Ciders and Gins for you to try!

MUSIC

Headlining the Friday night will be Oliver Pinder, supported by Jamie Wray. The Saturday night sees Ada Blue and Matt Baxter take to the stage. For an Adel Beer Festival first, the Bank Holiday Sunday will also have live music with Lily Cooke and James Thompson providing the entertainment!

FOOD

Jimmy Mack’s Street Kitchen will be providing their selection of low and slow smoked BBQ food all weekend.
