The Campana Lager Fest will feature beer, music, gastronomy exhibitors, informative talks, and tours of the area.

In an event that promises to delight lovers of craft beer and Colima culture, the Secretariat of Economic Development through the Tourism Promotion Trust of the Undersecretariat of Tourism of the Government of the State of Colima in collaboration with the Colima Brewery and the Cervecería de la Costa are proud to present the first edition of La Campana Lager Fest. An exciting family festival will take place on November 17 and 18 in the majestic La Campana Ecological Park, a place that treasures the richness of the natural and cultural heritage of Colima.


With the intention of fusing the pride of being a craft beer-producing state with the history and music that characterize the region, La Campana Lager Fest promises to be a unique event that will celebrate the Colima identity in an exciting and attractive way for everyone.


It should be noted that Colima has emerged as one of the main producers of craft beer in Mexico, surpassing states such as Nuevo León and Mexico City. Its flagship beer, “Colimita,” has won countless national and international awards in the last decade, establishing itself as the most awarded Mexican lager beer and the most consumed Mexican label nationally as well.
