Tsingtao Beer Festival & Linyi Stir-Fried Chicken Festival to kick off July 3

The 2026 Tsingtao Beer Festival together with Linyi Cultural Tourism Stir-Fried Chicken Festival will launch at the North Square of Linyi Grand Theatre on July 3 and run until July 19, bringing a grand summer carnival for local residents and tourists.

Centered on the theme “Gather in Linyi, Toast the World”, the beer carnival features unlimited cold fresh Tsingtao beer, live rock and DJ performances, live broadcast of FIFA World Cup matches, 15 food stalls, 30 summer market booths with handmade crafts, and free interactive games with gifts. As a highlight, the Linyi Stir-Fried Chicken sub-event runs from July 3 to 5, gathering dozens of time-honored local brands including the provincial intangible cultural heritage Erxiao Braised Chicken. Visitors can taste authentic Linyi stir-fried chicken free of charge, join lucky draws and buy pre-cooked chicken and secret sauces as souvenirs.

Exclusive early-bird discounts are available for Linyi Grand Theatre members: beer coupons are sold at half price (15 yuan for one-liter fresh beer, original price 30 yuan) during June 30 – July 5. Merchants are still being recruited for catering stalls and market booths with flexible rental packages for the 17-day event.

Integrating beer culture, local intangible gastronomy, live entertainment and night market economy, the dual festivals enrich Linyi's summer cultural tourism supply, boost nighttime consumption and build a distinctive urban summer brand featuring the signature Linyi stir-fried chicken.
