For years the festival has received rave reviews both in and outside Belgium, leading to the unofficial title of 'Belgium's cosiest beer festival'. Last year more than 1.800 visitors from Belgium, England, Netherlands, France, Spain, Sweden, Germany, Estonia, Costa Rica, Italy, Japan, Poland, Romania and Norway attended the Poperinge Beer Festival. With broad coverage in Belgian, British and French media the beer festival can claim international recognition!
During the two-day festival 25 brewers will present and pour a selection of their finest beers. Obviously they will also give a word of explanation about their beers and some exclusive new brews.
Indeed, the Poperinge Beer Festival always reveals a couple of new beers, presented with pride by the brewers in person. Some craft beer tastes and 'special' beers will also be featured. A true beer lover cannot miss this event!

The MG’s Brothers will be providing the musical entertainment. A true live band centred around Gino Kesteloot and Marc Vermeersch. They have more than earned their stripes and will undoubtedly create just the right atmosphere. We can safely call them our ‘house band’. After two years, by popular demand, they are making their comeback at the Poperinge Beer Festival!
The MG’s Brothers: that’s music tailored to your taste… from easy listening, pop and rock, sing-alongs and chansons to disco and contemporary music.
A great atmosphere is guaranteed!
The MG's Brothers always create just the right atmosphere and a unique ambience.
