Official poster

Harrogate Beer week is back from 16-22 September 2024, thanks to another year of support from Harrogate BID.

This will be the fourth year of the event which is a week-long, town-wide celebration of Harrogate's craft beer, brewing heritage, and beer culture in the local community.

Founded in 2021, it celebrates Harrogate’s social scene and nighttime economy, offering a programme of special events, offers, and promotions hosted at bars, and brewery taps across Harrogate.

Submissions are invited from local businesses for events or special promotions to be included in the week’s programme.

All accepted submissions will be included on the main Harrogate Beer Week website and will be promoted on social media.

An enhanced promotional package is also available.

All Harrogate-based pubs, bars, and other licenced premises are welcome to get involved as long as the events and promotions involve an element of celebrating great quality beer. 

In the past events have included talks by beer experts and specialists, brewery panel discussions, guided beer tastings, tap takeovers, live music events, pub quizzes, food and beer pairings, collaborations between local businesses, special guest appearances, and much more.

The campaign will be delivered by local beer and pubs champion and marketing specialist Rachel Auty.

Rachel has worked with some of the UK's leading craft breweries, and influencers, and she is currently a Director on the board of the British Guild of Beer Writers.

Rachel says:

“Harrogate Beer Week puts a spotlight on our fantastic beer scene and I’m really proud to lead this project and support my hometown.

From past years we know the event delivers direct benefits to the town, independent beer and food businesses, and has a notable positive impact on the wider town.

I’d love all our brilliant local pubs, bars, taprooms and bottle shops to put forward at least one event or promotion for this year’s programme so they can be part of it.”

 The official deadline for submissions will be Friday 23rd August, you can submit via this online form https://forms.gle/XdbqPf7S8M9P59Gy8

Some sponsorships are still available for those who want to support the event and benefit from positively boosting their profile across the town as part of a concerted marketing and media campaign.
