Beer festivals are an excellent opportunity for you to taste authentic Czech beer. It is a tradition that every fairly large brewery has its festival at least once a year.
And what is the program for this year like?
You can expect a lot of special beers, authentic Czech food and musical performances!
Visit, for example, the Bernard Fest 2026 (19–20 June) in Humpolec, or the festival CLOCK/DAY (24 July) in the village of Na Brnou.
And where can you go if you want to taste the best of various breweries at once?
On June 19-20, the Beer Festival at Náplavka will feature specialty beers from over 50 small and micro Czech breweries. You can also look forward to gastronomic delicacies and live music.
Admission to the festival and the accompanying cultural program is free, but the condition for beer tasting is the purchase of a 0.3l glass mug. Together with the festival tasting card and pencil, it will cost 100 CZK (70 CZK for seniors). It will be possible to use the same mug on both days of the festival.
On August 8, the oldest beer event in the Krkonoše Mountains – the Krkonoše Beer Festival is a feast of good beer and food. Under the supervision of the quality-conscious ruler of the mountains, Krakonoš, you will taste Czech beers of various brands.
You can eat grilled meat, sausages, steaks, skewers or blueberry pies and other local delicacies.
Then, Dočesná in Žatec (4–5 September) is an event combining the features of a beer and music festival. The town that gave its name to the highest-quality hop variety has prepared a quality musical program involving the tasting of more than 100 beer types this year.
