The Real Ale Trail will be taking a year off in 2026. 💤 🛌
The event has grown into something special. Packed buses, brilliant pubs, tasty local ale, and a proper community of people who just enjoy a good day out together.
Behind the scenes, the reality has shifted this year. Costs across the board have rocketed, and the unpredictability of ticket volumes makes it harder for all event organisers to run these experiences.
Rather than push ahead and hope for best the we’re choosing to pause.
Think of it as hibernation. The wheels are getting a rest.
To everyone who’s joined us over the years, thank you. You’ve made it what it is.
This isn’t the end. Just a well-timed pit stop.
We’ll keep you posted. Have a great summer!
🍻 Cheers Big Ears!
