Members Weekend 2026: St Albans is ready to welcome you! All members are warmly invited to join us in St Albans for CAMRA’s Members’ Weekend, 17–19 April – with plenty happening either side for those who want to make a longer trip of it. Our team in CAMRA South Herts Branch has been working hard to create a weekend that’s not just a great CAMRA gathering, but a true celebration of beer, cider, pubs and clubs across a whole city. For this weekend we’re creating something special called the St Albans City of Ale – a programme of events taking place right across the city in pubs, clubs and venues. Rather than concentrating everything in the conference venue, we’re taking the festival out into the places where great beer is poured every day. Our pubs (including many of our Good Beer Guide pubs) will be part of our City of Ale event, laying on special beers and ciders, running mini beer festivals, tastings, meet-the-brewer sessions, guided pub walks, live music and much more, giving you plenty of reasons to explore. And what a city it is to explore! St Albans is compact, friendly and packed with history, from the Roman remains of Verulamium to the magnificent Cathedral. It also boasts an exceptionally dense cluster of quality pubs within easy walking distance of each other, the Alban Arena where our conference will be held, and the train station. Whether you’re coming for the beer, the pubs, the people or a bit of all three, you’ll find a warm welcome waiting. More details on registration, travel and accommodation can be found at: https://camra.org.uk/members-weekend. We can’t wait to raise a glass with you in St Albans in April. Cheers!
