6th Peloponnese Beer Festival
Spread the word
Six Years of Greek Craft Beer, Music, and Moments That Bring Us Together
Six years later, we're no longer counting beer labels. We're counting stories.
The Peloponnese Beer Festival, Only Craft returns to Kalamata from 31st July to 2nd August 2026, reminding everyone why it has become one of the region's most anticipated summer events. Every year, thousands of visitors gather here to discover new flavours, meet new people, laugh, dance, and raise a glass together.
What began six years ago as a bold idea has grown into a landmark celebration of Greek craft beer, attracting visitors from across Greece and all over Europe.
For three unforgettable days, Kalamata becomes the meeting point for people who appreciate authentic flavours, live music, great company, and experiences that last long after the festival ends.
Only Craft. Only Real Stories.
