Bières & Saveurs de Chambly 2026

Bières & Saveurs de Chambly returns September 4–7, 2026 for its 23rd edition at the historic Fort-Chambly on the Richelieu River. Widely considered Quebec's flagship craft-beer festival, it spans four days on the Labour Day long weekend and draws tens of thousands of visitors. Exhibitors include Quebec microbreweries, cider houses, distilleries, alcohol-free producers, and a strong roster of local artisan food vendors. The site opens Friday from 2 p.m. to 10 p.m., Saturday and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m., and Monday with reduced hours until 6 p.m. The festival's setting inside the walls of a 17th-century French colonial fort, right on the water, gives it a distinctive character no other Quebec beer event matches. Programming typically includes live music, tasting workshops, and family-friendly zones.
