Beer Festival of Conca della Campania

The Beer Festival of Conca della Campania

In the heart of the Alto Casertano area, at the foot of Mount Massico and just a few kilometres from the border with lower Lazio, the town of Conca della Campania hosts one of the region's most anticipated summer events: the Beer Festival. For three consecutive nights, usually in mid-August, the town centre lights up with atmosphere, aromas, and music, offering residents and visitors a simple, genuine celebration of conviviality.

Craft beer and street food

The heart of the event is, naturally, the beer: over fifty craft labels, ranging from local brews to selections from across Italy, fill the bars set up at the former kindergarten in Piazza IV Novembre. Alongside the beer, there is plenty of great food, with stalls offering traditional Caserta and Campania dishes, sandwiches, fried snacks, and specialities to be enjoyed outdoors at tables while sharing a toast.

Live music and entertainment

Every evening, a rich programme of live music accompanies the festivities. Tribute bands and local groups take turns on stage, performing great classics of Italian and international music; in previous editions, the town has cheered on, among others, a highly popular Ligabue tribute band. The atmosphere remains that of a typical village fair, where the fun is for everyone and the evening continues late into the night.

An event for the whole family

The Beer Festival is not just for hop lovers: the funfair and areas dedicated to children make the event suitable for families as well. Kids and teenagers can enjoy rides and attractions, while adults relax with music and tastings in a cheerful, multi-generational atmosphere.

Conca della Campania and its surroundings

A small village in the province of Caserta, in Campania, Conca della Campania preserves a compact historic centre and a landscape of rolling hills and olive groves. For the community, the Beer Festival represents a strong moment of identity, capable of drawing back emigrants returning for the summer and visitors from neighbouring towns. Free admission and the open-air setting make it one of the most popular festivals in the area during the August evenings.
