Killearn Beer Festival – 1st June 2024

Probably the biggest day of the year in the Killearn social calendar, Saturday 1st June see’s locals and a wave of visitors come together in Killearn. Firstly for the 10k race then afterwards the Killearn Beer Festival takes centre stage!

Here at the Old Mill Killearn we are delighted once again to be the host venue of the Killearn Beer Festival 🙂

We will have two bars open at The Old Mill as well as the Beer Festival tent. We have plenty of card machines but on the off chance we experience technical difficulties (as happened for a heart-stopping 20 minutes last year) please bring cash.

We also have a new plan in place to try and ensure speedy service at the Cafe bar.

We will be serving food from the garden in takeaway boxes to collect from our outdoor stand. If you would like a table service meal, please book a table in the restaurant or yurt.

The weather is looking LOVELY so we will probably end up with a queue down Balfron Road between 3pm – 5pm. To avoid spending half your day on the streets of Killearn we recommend getting here early for beer or later for the bands.

INFORMATION FOR BEER FESTIVAL GOERS
The Car park will close at 4pm on Thursday afternoon for set up on Friday so please make sure you do not leave your car here. Ideally, don’t bring a car on the day! There is very limited parking in the village and it would be great to leave space in the village for those who need a car to get around.
