Barmy Army welcomes The Bierkeller as new HQ & Event Partner

Barmy Army is excited to announce a brand new partnership with The Bierkeller, which will see the latter become a HQ & Event Partner of the Barmy Army.

The Bierkeller is a Bavarian-inspired bar and experience famous for its long-benches, two-pint Steins and energetic, ‘come as you are’ atmosphere! The venues are renowned for its exceptional hospitality – boasting venues in Nottingham, Manchester, Birmingham and Liverpool, and featuring sports bars in every venue. The Bierkeller offers customers an immersive viewing experience along with games including pool, darts and beer pong.

The partnership will unite the world-famous supporters’ group, the Barmy Army, with one of the UK’s most popular venues for celebration and camaraderie. As a HQ & Event Partner, The Bierkeller will host a variety of exclusive Barmy Army events, including the return of this Summer’s Barmy Bingo events, live watchalongs, pre-Ashes meet & greets and more.

Barmy Army members and followers will be entitled to 20% off food and drink at ALL The Bierkeller venues every day of the week, including its smaller Klubhaus by The Bierkeller venues in Grantham and Saltaire! In order to redeem this offer, our members and followers simply need to inform The Bierkeller staff of their affiliation with the Barmy Army, and the discount will be provided.

Moreover, The Bierkeller will also host the famous ‘Barmy Bingo’ events later this summer. The dates for the first three Barmy Bingo events of 2025 have already been announced, with The Bierkeller set to host the famous events in Birmingham and Manchester respectively. Tickets for both events are on sale now via the Barmy Army website. 

The Bierkeller will serve as the go-to venue for fans to cheer on England, with large screens, premium sound systems, and a buzzing crowd atmosphere. It promises to deliver unforgettable experiences for supporters and enhance the community spirit that the Barmy Army is known for.

Adam Canning, Barmy Army Commercial & Operations Director, said: “We’re delighted to have partnered with Bierkeller for our major events this year. We can’t wait for our Members to experience the energetic atmosphere The Bierkeller is known for. I’m sure our members will make great use of the fantastic 20% discount on offer, nationwide, seven days a week. It’s another fantastic benefit for our members and followers to enjoy.
