The Claremont Kiwanis Club is proud to be hosting the 2026 Claremont Kiwanis Brewfest & 5K on September 19, 2026.

*******Please note this is a 21 and over event with no exceptions*******

This is our 12th year hosting the Brewfest and, our 11th year running the “Back to the Brewfest 5K”. We are also pleased to announce the return of the VIP Hour with special Brews that will not be available during general admission, special music selection, hors d’oeuvres prepared by The Common Man in Claremont, NH, a commemorative glass, entry into a VIP only raffle, not to mention quality time with the brewers.

In the center of beautiful Claremont, N.H., sample beers from more than thirty brewers from all over New England as they compete for the top prize on Saturday, Sept. 19 at the Claremont Kiwanis Brewfest Battle of the Brews. Upon entrance, visitors receive a ballot and the category winners are chosen by you!

This will be a fun and competitive event for New England Brewers, runners, beer and cider lovers. Once again, it is a ballot and trophy affair, but our main objective is to get people together to have fun and taste great beer while raising money for local community needs. The event will feature live music by Party Crashers.

The 11th Annual Back to the Brewfest 5k is returning to beautiful downtown Claremont. Runners will be challenged with a scenic course over rolling terrain. And if you enjoy ending your run with a celebratory brew, then this race is for you! With the purchase of the Combo ticket runners will be rewarded with a huge party featuring live music, the finest craft beers in the area and delicious food!

The 5K starts at 11:30 AM., the VIP hour starts at 12 PM., and the Gates open for general admission at 1 PM. Last serve is 4 PM
