Bellingham Beer Week Is Back!

Dear Bellingham Beer Lovers,

If you’re reading this, it’s likely because you’ve enjoyed a craft beer in Bellingham at some point—and for that, we thank you. All 15 Bellingham breweries have once again come together to bring you Bellingham Beer Week! Join us in Bellingham, WA, April 10th–19th, 2026 for a full week celebrating our vibrant craft beer community, the spirit of collaboration, and of course—LOCAL BEER!

Here in Bellingham, we believe that a rising tide raises all ships. Our goal with Bellingham Beer Week is to come together as small locally owned businesses to uplift our craft and give the people who love it an experience to remember.

Mark your calendars for a delightful early spring week in Bellingham, April 10th–19th! Bellingham, this is your sign to invite your friends, old college buds, or maybe your brother-in-law to come visit. If you’re reading this from out of town, we want YOU to plan a trip to Bellingham! With events happening every night, new beers and collaborations pouring across the city, and a culminating beer festival—April Brews Day on April 18th, benefitting Max Higbee Center. This is not a week to miss. It’s simple math really…

Bellingham + Beer + Springtime = Magic.

Think of it like an adult spring break. Any Bellingham activity paired with a fun beer event afterward is a guaranteed good time. Plan a walk through the park, a hike on Chuckanut, a visit to the beach, a trip to Mount Baker, or a mountain bike ride on Galbraith—then work your way through all 15 local breweries. The possibilities are endless!

The Bellingham Beer Alliance will release our full calendar of events in early March, so all you Type A folks can plot out your entire trip. For the Type B crowd—go ahead and book that Airbnb now. Need help organizing your visit? We’ve got you. We’ll have links on our website to local tourism blogs and resources of things to do in Bellingham.

We are so excited to showcase our vibrant beer community this spring. It’s truly something special, and your support means more than you know.

See you in April beer lovers!

Cheers,

Bellingham Beer Alliance

        We acknowledge that Whatcom County is located on the unceded territory of the Coast Salish Peoples. They cared for the lands that included what we’d call the Puget Sound region, Vancouver Island and British Columbia since time immemorial. This gives us the great obligation and opportunity to learn how to care for our surrounding areas and all the natural and human resources we require to live. We express our deepest respect and gratitude for our indigenous neighbors, the Lummi Nation and Nooksack Tribe, for their enduring care and protection of our shared lands and waterways.
