There is something special about standing in a field with a drink in your hand while a grown adult dressed vaguely like Freddie Mercury belts out arena classics into the afternoon sky.
And in 2026, London Vegan Beer Fest is embracing that energy.
Read more below.
For the very first time in the history of the festival, we are introducing a full outdoor live music stage packed with tribute acts performing the biggest songs of all time. This is a full singalong situation! You’ll be shouting the lyrics to Bohemian Rhapsody with a field full of strangers.
I have personally picked some of the most entertaining tribute artists in London.
Get ready for tribute performances celebrating:
• T-Rex
• Bee Gees
• Queen
• Taylor Swift
• ABBA
Every act will perform an approximately 40 minute set packed with wall to wall smash hits.
You will be able to sip beer (or wine, cider, cocktails, or soft drinks) while dramatically pointing at the stage during Dancing Queen or Shake It Off.
And that is just the stage.
London Vegan Beer Fest 2026 is shaping up to be the biggest edition of the event I have ever created.
Alongside the live music stage, you will find:
• A beer hall showcasing independent breweries from around the UK
• A vegan food village with incredible street food traders
• A dedicated karaoke tent for people who believe they should also be on stage
• A speakeasy bar serving cocktails, wine, and soft drinks
• A retail shopping tent packed with independent businesses and vegan goods
This is a full day festival built for eating, drinking, dancing, and singing.
