Chorlton Beer & Cider Festival is a long-running community event held annually in early July in the beautiful grounds and buildings of the Grade II listed St Clement’s Church. The festival began way back in 2005, growing from a small event to a local institution that welcomes up to 4000 people a year.
2026 will mark the 20th Chorlton Beer & Cider Festival. It will feature over 120 independent beers in cask, keg , bottle & can, a massive extensive ciders & perry bar, The Vicar’s Gin & Wine Bar, the Low & Free alcohol free and soft drinks bar. In addition, there’ll be a wide selection of local street food, and live music and much more.
The festival is organised by the church in association with Trafford & Hulme CAMRA with the proceeds being invested back into St Clement’s facilities which are available for the whole Chorlton Community.
