Contrary to the widespread belief that you need to be in late September (or be in Germany) to celebrate a fair in honor of beer, plans like this weekend. Getafe has its own beer festival. From March 27 to 30, the Plaza de España in Getafe will become a hop paradise with the third edition of the Craft Beer Fair.
An event designed for lovers of quality beer, where 17 breweries will bring more than a hundred varieties to taste.
Live music to accompany the pints
The festival is not only about drinking (although that is the main thing), but there will also be concerts every night to liven up the fair:
- Friday (22:00 h): T3rminus .
- Saturday (22:00 h): Ksora Rock
- Sunday (20:00 h): Laika Stone
In addition to beer and music, the fair, organized by La Ruta del Lúpulo together with the City Council of Getafe, will have contests, workshops and popular games to keep the balance between pint and pint. And if so much barley awakens hunger, the venue will also have several food trucks to accompany the tasting with something solid.

In addition, projects such as La Osita or Península show the growing passion for this market, which is gaining more and more followers in the city. And you have some of those options covered in this article.
