Liverpool Craft Brew Festival Returns with ‘A Hoppy Christmas Party’ at Invisible Wind Factory
The Liverpool Craft Brew Festival is set to return this winter with A Hoppy Christmas Party — a festive edition of its popular event series taking place on Saturday 22 November 2025 at Invisible Wind Factory.
Following a sold-out summer run, the festival promises a full day of festive fun with bottomless craft beer, cider, wine, prosecco, soft drinks, and non-alcoholic options included in one ticket price. Organisers describe the event as “five hours of full-throttle, all-in, party-mode madness” featuring live music, DJs, street food, and a high-energy Christmas atmosphere.
Festival co-founder Simon Robinson said: “We are so excited to bring Craft Brew Festival back to The Invisible Wind Factory for a fourth time – Liverpool is always one of the highlights of the tour for us and always shows up for a big party. We’ve made some enhancements to the production that we’re very happy about and, thanks to our long-term partnership with the venue, we’ve even been able to reduce early-bird tickets by £5. We can’t wait to unwrap all the festive fun we’ve got planned for A Hoppy Christmas Party this year, with more breweries, cideries and wineries bringing more delicious craft drinks than ever before.”
The one-day event will showcase more than 50 craft drinks from over 15 independent UK breweries and producers, alongside live music, acoustic sets, meet-the-brewer sessions, and giveaways. Guests can expect a wide variety of styles—from hoppy IPAs and rich stouts to sours, saisons, and mulled wine—served in half-pints, thirds, or tasters to suit every preference.
Organisers have promised a bigger and better experience for 2025, with more breweries, an expanded street food line-up, improved facilities, and extra seating. Designed as an inclusive celebration for friends, colleagues, and festive revellers alike, A Hoppy Christmas Party aims to be Liverpool’s ultimate pre-Christmas gathering.
The full line-up of breweries, bands, and food vendors will be announced in the coming weeks.
