About Nancy Beer Festival
A Double Event Dedicated to Beer
The Brewer's Exhibition and the Beer Festival form a unique event in France that brings together beer professionals and enthusiasts around a shared passion: the art of brewing. Organized every autumn at the Parc des Expositions de Nancy in Vandoeuvre-lès-Nancy, this event has established itself as a must-attend gathering for the French brewing industry.
The Brewer's Exhibition: A Major Professional Trade Show
The Brewer's Exhibition takes place during the week (Thursday and Friday) and is aimed at professionals and discerning amateurs in the brewing world. With over 180 exhibitors spread across 6,500 m² of indoor space, it is the largest professional trade show dedicated to brewing in France.
A Show for All Industry Stakeholders
The show brings together:
- Raw material suppliers: maltsters, hop growers, yeast producers.
- Equipment manufacturers: brewing, bottling, and packaging equipment.
- Services: analysis laboratories, consultants, training providers.
- Craft and industrial brewers: showcasing their creations and innovations.
The Beer Festival: A Festive Weekend
The weekend is dedicated to the general public with two main highlights:
- Saturday evening: A grand festive evening with craft beer tasting, live music, and a friendly atmosphere.
- Sunday: The Beer and Flavors Market, where visitors can discover and purchase craft beers from all over France and beyond, accompanied by local products.
Nancy, Capital of Craft Beer
The event helps position Nancy and the Lorraine region as a center of excellence for craft beer in France. The Grand Est region now boasts a remarkable density of craft breweries, and the Brewer's Exhibition supports this dynamic by providing a space for exchange, training, and promotion for the entire industry.
