About Birròforum

Birròforum is the major summer festival dedicated to Italian craft beer, enlivening the Lungotevere Maresciallo Diaz gardens in Rome's Farnesina district every summer. A spin-off of the renowned Vinòforum, the event brings together 26 of the nation's best breweries, a vibrant street food village with affordable tastings, beer tasting workshops with the UDB (Union of Beer Tasters), and live music from the most original street bands every evening. An unmissable event for craft beer enthusiasts, set in the open air along the banks of the Tiber.

Birròforum, Rome's premier craft beer festival

Every summer, the Lungotevere Maresciallo Diaz gardens in the Farnesina district transform into the Birròforum Village, one of the most anticipated food and wine events of the Roman summer. Born as a spin-off of the famous Vinòforum, created by Emiliano De Venuti, Birròforum brings the best of Italian craft beer to the heart of Rome, in an open-air setting overlooking the Tiber.

26 breweries and the best of Italian craft beer

The heart and soul of the event are the 26 top-tier national breweries, guiding visitors through a tasting journey across diverse brewing styles and traditions: from heavily hopped IPAs to crisp summer lagers, and from blanche to dark, full-bodied ales. Alongside the breweries, you will find beer shops, distributors, and distilleries, offering a comprehensive overview of the quality beer world.

Street food and affordable tastings

Great food accompanies every sip: the gastronomic area offers street food and specialties with affordable tastings designed to be accessible to everyone. Fried delicacies, pasta dishes, meats, and regional specialties complete the experience, perfectly paired with the beers on tap.

Live music, workshops, and beer culture

A major highlight of the Birròforum Summer Festival is the live music, with the most original and entertaining street bands performing every night. The program also includes tasting workshops organized in collaboration with the UDB – Union of Beer Tasters, as well as seminars, food shows, and technical events dedicated to enthusiasts and curious visitors wanting to learn more about the work of master brewers. There is no shortage of games, entertainment, and a pet-friendly space.

An appointment in the heart of Rome

Hosted in the Municipality of Rome, in the Lazio region, Birròforum has become a classic of the Roman summer: a convivial occasion to gather outdoors on the banks of the Tiber, amidst good beer, quality food, and music. Admission, which includes a tasting glass, grants access to all evenings of the festival.
