Belfast Spirit: Belfast Whiskey Week Returns Bigger, Bolder and Better with Three Mini Festivals within the Festival

What started as a passion project for Belfast’s whiskey community has grown into something far bigger than ...

New for 2026

BWW IS BACK IN BELFAST THIS 2026. BIGGER. BOLDER. MORE BELFAST.

Our jam-packed 9-day festival is back — running Friday 24th July to Saturday 1st August — and this year we're turning it up a notch.

On top of the whiskey events you know and love, we're thrilled to announce three brand new festivals within the festival. More to see, more to taste, more reasons to be in Belfast this summer.

Belfast Fringe Fest

The fringe festival celebrating whiskey culture across Belfast.

Belfast Cocktail City

Belfast's celebration of cocktail culture and mixology.

Belfast Food Fest

The best of Belfast's food scene, paired with whiskey.
