Workers Beer Company

The Workers Beer Company (WBC) is a British-Irish organisation which runs temporary bars at events and festivals in Europe. The organisation is run by volunteers and raises money for trade unions, charities and left-wing campaign groups. The most notable events supported by the WBC include Glastonbury Festival, Reading and Leeds Festivals, Latitude Festival, Tolpuddle Festival, Guilfest, Homelands and Womad, as well as smaller concerts and meetings. In Ireland, WBC provides (among other posts) "Information Stewards" at the Oxegen festival.

The company also runs a permanent public house, the Bread and Roses, in Clapham, London, and sells "Workers Ale".

The company is supported by the TUC and many other charities and organisations.
