There will be around 50 beers and 20 ciders on offer.

The Day Session will run from 10:30 – 16:00 and the Evening Session from 17:00 – 22:30. Food will be available, and there will be acoustic music in the evenings and a quiz in the afternoons. A small number of walk-in tickets will be available, but we advise buying a ticket beforehand to ensure that you get in. There will be no under-18s allowed, and we can only allow assistance dogs.
Tickets cost £10.
· CAMRA members: will need to purchase a ticket. On arrival, show a valid membership card to receive £10 of beer tokens, effectively refunding the ticket price.
