The "Barcelona Beer Festival" (BBF) is the most significant trade fair and the largest craft beer festival in Southern Europe. As the heart of the international craft beer scene, it transforms the Catalan metropolis into the center of beer culture for three days. Organized by Beer Events, S.L., the BBF takes place annually at Fira de Barcelona, attracting brewers, traders, restaurateurs, and beer enthusiasts from around the world.
At its core, the festival celebrates artisanal brewing, showcasing an impressive variety of creative beers with innovative flavors and aromas. Visitors have the opportunity to sample hundreds of beers presented by international, national, and local breweries. Experienced "Beer Informers" are on hand to offer guidance and help guests find the perfect beer to suit their taste preferences.
Beyond enjoyment, the BBF fosters professional exchange within the industry. The parallel event, InnBrew, provides a platform for brewery and gastronomy professionals to discuss emerging trends, new technologies, and market strategies. Another highlight is the Barcelona Beer Challenge, one of Europe's most prestigious beer competitions, recognizing the best beers of the past year. Additionally, the Gastro Show emphasizes the close connection between craft beer and gastronomy, offering innovative food pairings and culinary experiences.
Barcelona, as a vibrant metropolis with a deeply rooted culinary and artisanal beer culture, is the ideal host for this unique event. The city embodies creativity, indulgence, and innovation—values that the BBF also represents. Fira de Barcelona, one of Europe’s leading exhibition and convention centers, provides the perfect infrastructure and excellent transport connections.
The Barcelona Beer Festival is more than just a trade fair—it is a movement, a gathering place for everyone passionate about the art of craft beer and its evolution. Whether brewer, restaurateur, or beer enthusiast, people come together to discover, learn, and enjoy. Year after year, the BBF sets new standards, demonstrating the endless diversity of the craft beer world.
The Barcelona Beer Festival (BBF) in Barcelona took place from Friday, 11. April to Sunday, 13. April 2025.
