Cotswold Beer Festival is in its 42nd year thanks to the passion and dedication of some very special people. In 1977 a group of young, enthusiastic and naive volunteers set up what was to become the legendary Cotswold Beer Festival – CAMRA’s longest running Beer Festival. For 42 years many of those same volunteers have run the festival and it is this that gives the festival its unique character. This is a festival about real ale and friends no more, no less.
