It will begin on Wednesday (March 6) and end on Sunday, March 17.

Wetherspoons regulars will get the opportunity to sample beers from Belgium, Germany, Italy, Taiwan and the USA.

Plus, punters will be able to sample vegan, vegetarian and gluten-free beers.

The pub chain said its festival beers will be available for £1.99 at 50 pubs, but the vast majority of branches will have prices starting from £2.49.

It’s a good idea to double check the price of a pint before you order so you aren’t caught out if it’s a little more than you expected.

Three third-of-a-pint tasters will also be available for the price of a pint.

Wetherspoons runs two real ale festivals every year – one in the spring and another in autumn.

Fans have taken to social media to share their excitement at the festival returning.

Ways to save at Wetherspoons

Every year, Spoons holds its Tax Equality Day to highlight the benefits of a permanently reduced tax bill for the pub industry.

It usually takes place in September, and last year it fell on Thursday, September 14.

As well as its Spring festival, Wetherspoons also holds a 12-day Real Ale Festival every Autumn.

Wetherspoons is known for its meal deal offers that run all week long.

These include Tuesday’s Steak Club, the Thursday Curry Club and Fish Friday.

For example, a standard curry club meal with an alcoholic drink is between £8.55 and £9.19.

Outside of the deal, you would expect to pay around a fiver more for the same meal.

You can enjoy bottomless brews all day in participating Wetherspoons pubs by buying one hot drink.

The offer includes Tetley tea and a range of Lavazza coffee including a flat white, latte, cappuccino, and Americano.

Prices start from just 99p but they can vary depending on your location.
