Ale By Rail 2026

 Ale By Rail 2026 was a huge hit. Thank you to all visitors who came to support our event, enjoying live music, good food and great drinks.

With the nice weather, the yard apron beer garden quickly filled up.

With all designated seating taken, some decide to bring their own.

Along with the variety of ales, beers and ciders on offer, visitors could grab a taste of Brazilian or artisan sausage street food.

Our Ale By Rail headline sponsors Vertu Hyundai Silverlink showcase 4 cars outside the museum.

It's all smiles at the opening of the 'Billy Bar' at Ale By Rail 2026.

The thirst for the wide selection of ales, beers and ciders does not stop at the 'Billy Bar'.

With live performances from local bands throughout the night, the museum is also busy with supporters.

Late into the evening Metro 4001 repurposes into a makeshift rave venue.
