Mikkeller Beer Celebration Copenhagen

MBCC is our annual beer festival, where we celebrate good beer and the people who brew it. The conception of the festival came way back when we hosted the 1st anniversary of our original beer bar on Viktoriagade, where we invited some of our friends from the brewing industry to stop by and bring some of their beer.

More than just a beer festival

From then on things moved quickly and the birthday turned into an actual beer festival quite fast. Throughout the years we have always sought to push the boundaries for what a beer festival can actually represent and do some crazy things along the way, and in 2024 close to one hundred breweries from all over the world will make their way to Copenhagen.

What makes MBCC different from a lot of other beer festivals is first and foremost our “free bar” concept. Lots of other beer festivals use a token system where you purchase tokens in exchange for samples, but at MBCC you just grab your glass and are free to roam around and taste all the goodies. If you just started to dip your toes into the wonderful world of craft beer then MBCC is the perfect event for you to taste a ton of different beer styles and really explore what beer can be. However, it’s also a pure paradise for all the beer geeks out there, as MBCC gives you access to some really top shelf beers you normally wouldn’t be able to get your hands on - not to mention the insane one-off brews made only for MBCC.

The ticket structure for MBCC is based on different sessions. Session tickets give you access to one (or more) of the four sessions we are hosting during Friday and Saturday. At each session the different breweries will bring new beer, so there will always be something exciting to taste.
