Trondheim Brewery Festival

Trondheim Brewery Festival is a celebration of the art and craft of brewing of all kinds from the unique Trøndelag region, where the focus is on flavor, culture, history and tradition. It's a unique festival experience in the heart of town.

Trondheim Brewery Festival is held in Trondheim August 1-3, 2019, and is dedicated to all things brewing; coffee, tea, kombucha, and of course the beers; specialty beers, handcrafted beers, small batch beers.

This year we have our first brewers of mead, the old Viking brew with a modern twist. And, as we have such pleasant tasting apples in Norway we will be showcasing our first cider brewer at the festival. All of these represent the best of brewers from the Trøndelag region, other parts of Norway, as well as from Spain, Sweden and England. 

Come visit Norway's longest bar where you will get to taste countless styles of brews, meet the brewers themselves and learn about brew and food pairings. In our festival restaurants you can choose from a variety of dishes, all based on local ingredients. 

Serving closes at 11pm all days.

Trondheim Brewery Festival is a place where both the beginner and the seasoned brewing enthusiast can learn more about craft and techniques, as a total of 26 breweries will be pouring from their taps with lots of stories to share. 

The festival is free and open to everybody, but we do have a limited number of guests that may enter the festival area. If you would like to sample brews you may purchase a tasting glass and festival coins ('Oi!s') at the entrance. The glass holds approximately 100 ml, and one tasting costs 1 Oi! You may also purchase glasses and coins online;

The Brewery Packet costs NOK 375 and includes one glass and 10 Oi! coins for tastings, and can be picked up at the entrance. This way you get to skip the line when you get the festival!

Trondheim Brewery Festival is put on by Oi! Trøndersk Mat og Drikke, a non-profit and stock-based company working to create more visibility, revenue and celebration of local producers and brewers in the Trøndelag region.

The festival was held for the first time in 2013, and has evolved into becoming a popular arena for brewing skills, showcasing the best of craft brew from the region and the country as a whole.

As we go for quality above quantity, we have no ambitions of becoming the largest brewing festival there is. But a lot of people think we are the best craft brew festival, and that's something we continue to work for!
