We are extremely pleased to welcome you to Brewers Congress 2024, the annual highlight of the brewing industry calendar. The Brewers Congress is bigger than ever, with two days of exhibition and talks, and one massive party where we will crown the winners of the 2024 Brewers Choice Awards.

Now in its sixth year, the Brewers Congress is building on its reputation and the most important date in the brewing industry calendar. 

The 2024 congress will be our biggest yet with some 2,500 square metres of space, packed with lectures, exhibitors and of course brewers!

Once again the Brewers Congress will bring two days of exhibition and talks, and give exhibitors ample setup and breakdown time to allow you to show off your ingredients, kits and services. 

The Brewers Congress is returning to the heart of central London at the Business Design Centre. Over 2,500 square metres of space to entertain,  educate and celebrate the very best of British brewing. 

All stands come with a prebuilt shell scheme and carpeted. 
Furniture and equipment can be ordered separately either through our suppliers or independently. 
Power and lighting must be ordered via us or the venue.
