Program & Schedule: What to Expect in 2026
This is a one-day indoor festival on 3 October 2026, open from 14:00 to 23:00. The focus is tasting: visitors move between brewery stands, compare styles and talk to the makers. A published live-music line-up is not available at the time of research; the event is built around Belgian beer culture and a convivial hall setting. Extra programme updates will come from organiser Boerenkrijger Bier via its usual channels.

Official 2026 ticket prices have not been published yet. There is no confirmed Euro price range. Check the organiser’s latest announcement or the event listing shortly before the day.

Visitor Tips: Travel & Accommodation in Overmere
- Overmere is part of Berlare in East Flanders. Travel by train to Lokeren or Dendermonde, then by bus or car towards Donkmeer/Overmere; the hall sits in the village centre.
- Early October in Flanders is often cool and changeable: bring a light jacket. The festival is indoors, but the walk to the door is not.
- Lodging in Overmere is limited; book early in Berlare, Lokeren, Dendermonde or Ghent if you plan to stay overnight.
- Bring ID. Alcohol-free beers are advertised, so designated drivers can still join the tasting.
- After the festival, walk to Boerenkrijgpark and Donkmeer – Overmere is where the 1798 Peasants’ War began.
