Kenilworth's Beer and Music Festival is returning for its fourth year "bigger and better".

The festival will take place at Kenilworth RFC from 1 to 3 May 2026, with great music and great drinks.

The rugby club is once again raising money for Myton Hospice, having raised over £10,000 for the charity last year.

Ahead of the festival, KENFEST Calling has begun. This competition will determine who plays on the KENFEST main stage. Heats one and two took place last weekend, with the next two rounds at the end of the month before the final on 12 March.

The competition takes place at the HMV Empire in Coventry, and tickets are available on the KENFEST website.

Visitors to the festival can expect to enjoy some great food and drink. Local vendors will be serving a variety of food, from Greek gyros and burgers to pizza and ice cream. A selection of 45 different ales will be on offer, including crowd favourite 'hairy tosser'.

Ciders and craft beer will also be available.

The festival will also host many activities for children, including face painting and glitter tattoos, alongside bouncy castles and soft play games.

The festival has sold out every year, so organisers are encouraging locals to buy tickets as early as possible. Tickets cost £5 and can be purchased on the festival's website. Locals can also register to volunteer at the festival on the website and will receive a free session ticket.
