LAST YEAR:
BEER GEEK MADNESS 2023
In 2023, Beer Geek Madness once again attracted over 50 breweries from Poland and all over the world, as well as 2,500 beer enthusiasts, to the city of Wrocław. This edition took place for the first time at Czasoprzestrzeń and offered a variety of craft beers, culinary delicacies from food trucks and live concerts.
The most important feature of the festival was, as always, the "pay once, drink as much as you want" model, which made the festival a unique experience for craft beer lovers. Beer Geek Madness 2023 is not only a beer festival, it is also an opportunity to have fun with like-minded individuals, and combine beer and food flavours with great live music.

PREVIOUS EDITIONS OF THE FESTIVAL
Beer Geek Madness has a long history, dating back to the first years of the Beer Revolution in Poland. BGM2024 is the tenth edition of the festival.
The first edition of the festival took place on August 30, 2014 in Wrocław's Zaklęte Rewiry under the slogan "Mikkeller and guests", and was attended by the Danish Mikkeller and a number of Polish breweries, many of which were taking their first steps at that time and today are recognized brands in the world of craft beer.
Since then, fans of good beer have met in Wrocław every year, with a small break in 2021 caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and earlier, in 2020, when the already planned and prepared festival had to be cancelled at the last minute and went virtual after the introduction of pandemic restrictions. After this momentary hiatus, in 2022 Beer Geek Madness returned in its old - although improved - form and immediately took the participants into space, as befits an event whose main theme and thought was the space race.
During these nine main editions spread over ten years, Beer Geek Madness was attended by over 17,000 craft beer enthusiasts, not only from Poland, but also from distant corners of the world. We hosted over 120 different breweries, some of which became regular guests at the festival, and we poured over 450 hectolitres of beer into glasses, having great fun at the same time - as you can see below!
2022 — BEER GEEK MADNESS
SPACE RACE
In 2022, Beer Geek Madness took participants on a space race in a historically inspired formula. The guests of the festival were breweries from Eastern Europe and the United States, fighting for the prize of the best festival beer of the year.
2020 — BEER GEEK MADNESS
BLACK & SOUR
Black & Sour was an edition full of internal, controlled conflict. In 2020, the virtual Beer Geek Madness was dominated by two opposing beer styles: on the one hand, dark and full-bodied beers, and on the other, sour and refreshing ones.
2019 — BEER GEEK MADNESS
RAGE
In 2019, Wrocław experienced a punk invasion from the British Isles. This edition focused on beers and breweries from Ireland and the UK, with token representation from the US and Spain. It was loud, it was emotional, it was great.
