Six Italian artisanal breweries—The Hop Gang, Birrificio degli Ostuni, Calender, Birra Salento, Officine Birrai, and L’Olmaia—will participate. The festival will feature local gastronomic specialties such as caciocavallo impiccato, bombette, and seafood meatballs, alongside musical entertainment including acoustic groups and DJ sets.

As part of the celebrations, the ‘Aspettando La Corte dei Luppoli’ initiative will offer guided historical walks through Galatina, visiting landmarks such as Porta Luce and the Basilica of Santa Caterina d’Alessandria. ## Timeline ### 2026-08-13: Italian craft beer celebrates 30 years with festivals and local traditions Italy's craft beer industry celebrates 30 years in 2026, highlighted by the ‘La Corte dei Luppoli’ festival and historical tours in Galatina. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/italian-craft-beer-celebrates-30-years-with-festivals-and-local-traditions ### 2026-08-12: Galatina to host second Corte dei Luppoli craft beer festival The second ‘Corte dei Luppoli’ festival will be held in Galatina from August 14–16, featuring six Italian craft breweries, local gastronomy, and live music in the town's historic center. 3 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/galatina-to-host-second-corte-dei-luppoli-craft-beer-festival --- Cite as: Corte dei Luppoli festival in Galatina.
