About BrewLoops
BrewLoops is not your average beer festival—it’s a full-blown celebration of Kamloops culture, creativity, and community. Since 2014, this non-profit festival has evolved into a citywide experience, with events unfolding across unique venues throughout the year and culminating in a vibrant multi-day festival each fall. BrewLoops brings together craft beer and cider from across British Columbia, an eclectic lineup of musical acts, theatrical performances, family-friendly attractions, and unforgettable outdoor block parties.
Expect everything from tap takeovers and tailgate-style concerts to bike tours, brunches, cask and food pairings, and hands-on tasting experiences. Whether you’re a die-hard beer fan or just looking for a great time in one of BC’s most collaborative and creative cities, BrewLoops offers something for everyone.
More than just a good time, BrewLoops gives back—raising significant funds in partnership with Western Canada Theatre and Rotary West, with proceeds supporting local arts, culture, and community initiatives. With over $75,000 donated to date, BrewLoops continues to grow as a showcase of Kamloops spirit—where beer, art, music, and community come together.
Giving Back
Surplus funds benefit community charities and initiatives, especially through partnerships with the Rotary Club of Kamloops West and Western Canada Theatre. BrewLoops also collaborates with other charities to support their fundraising efforts. In 10 years we have donated more than $150,000 to the community.
