3. Beer festival

Nearby in Leamington, crowds are expected to gather for the return of Leamington Beer Festival 2026.

Hosted in collaboration with Windmill Hill Brewery and Taproom, this year's event will take place from 15 to 18 October.

The festival will also support Myton Hospice, with funds raised helping it continue supporting patients receiving end-of-life care.

The Windmill Hill team shared: "We celebrate Warwickshire brewing with craft beer from around the county in support of Myton Hospice.

"Meet the brewer, drain the brewery!"

Kicking off the festival, on Thursday, 15 October, from 6 pm, the evening will run until 10pm. On Friday, from 4pm to 11pm there will be live music and Greek street food. And over the weekend, on Saturday, the event will run from 1pm to 11pm with Mesa Americana and Pink Indian food. The festival will then end on Sunday at 8pm with samosas and 'Drink Brewery Dry' cask.

Speaking on April's festival, Taproom Manager Ben Cowan shared: "We thought that we might be onto something. Every self-respecting provincial town needs a beer festival, especially a Spa town, like Leamington."

Tickets are now on sale and can be secured here.
