Český Krumlov Beer Festival 2026

The Český Krumlov Beer Festival is a celebration of craft beer, flavours, people, and local traditions. It takes place throughout May 2026 in the historic town centre, at the Port 1560 brewery, and at numerous participating restaurants, pubs, and beer halls. The festival motto is TASTE – FUN – EXPERIENCE. Visitors can look forward to two weeks full of stylish experiences: guided tastings, beer tours of local establishments (with a "1+1 free beer" system), evenings at the mill, beer-themed activities, programmes with live music, thematic walks exploring the history of beer, stylish photography sessions in the historic Seidel studio, and beer-themed boat trips on the Vltava River. The festival brings together local businesses, breweries, and beer enthusiasts. Entry to most events is free; tickets for selected events are available online on the festival website and at the Český Krumlov Information Centre. The festival is under the patronage of Senator Tomáš Jirsa, South Bohemian Region Governor Martin Kuba, and Český Krumlov Deputy Mayor Dalibor Uhlíř. The festival is created in cooperation with local businesses, craft breweries, and with support from the town of Český Krumlov and the South Bohemian Region.
