Landmarks Festival @ Gan Yam Brewery

Landmarks Festival @ Gan Yam Brewery

Gan Yam Brew Co are pleased to announce the first edition of their new bi-annual festival LANDMARKS. Taking place at the brewery across three days, there will be live music, DJs, craft stalls, an exhibition, talks and more! Each edition of the festival will have a theme - the first one is “Home” - and the brewery will work alongside an artist who will exhibit work and design a one-off seasonal beer to be launched at the festival. For the first LANDMARKS we are proud to have commissioned Juliet Klottrup, whose work explores themes of youth, landscape, community, rurality, tradition and the relationship between people and place.

On Saturday the brewery will be transformed into an exhibition space to display Juliet Klottrup’s work and we will also launch the first LANDMARKS beer, “Home,” a 9.4% barley wine brewed with oak chips and featuring exclusive artwork designed by Juliet. Morecambe Bay Chowder Co are providing food for the afternoon and there will be a host of craft stalls displaying the wealth of local talent and produce we have in Cumbria.
