7th Emsworth Beer, Cider & Wine Festival Fri 22 – Sun 24 Sept

This year’s Festival will have around 25 delicious cask-conditioned ales from near and far, including interesting local brews and national award winners, along with a number of excellent ciders.  We will be joined by two of Emsworth’s independent wine merchants, Bush Vines and Vin, who will be providing a range of wines by the glass.  Please note we do not stock ales which you will find in the Emsworth area – we source from as far afield as Scotland.

Indian street food will be provided by Darbar Restaurant.

This year’s ‘Friday Night Is Music Night’ will again feature piano player and raconteur Andy Beaumont, who will be playing a great selection of traditional pub songs and other tunes.

The Festival is held in the Emsworth Community Centre, a short walk from Emsworth Station and a stone’s throw from the 700 bus route.  The Community Centre is at the bottom of North Street, just north of the roundabout, between Emsworth Medical Practice and the Fire Station.

We will have an outdoor seating area, subject to the weather, and an additional large ‘quiet’ room inside where we will show silent films and where you can play cards or board games.

Tickets include a souvenir glass, programme and your first pint of beer or cider, or glass of wine.

There are four sessions:

• Friday 22 September – 5.00pm – 10.30pm – £12.50
• Saturday 23 September – 11am – 5.00pm – £12.50
• Saturday 23 September – 5.00pm – 10.30pm – £12.50
• Sunday 24 September – 12 noon – 4.00pm – FREE Admission with all remaining beers at substantially reduced prices.  You can buy one of our glasses or bring one of your own – just make sure it’s properly marked at pint or half pint.  You can also bring your own clean 2 or 4 pint container if you’d like to take any beer home.

Tickets are be available from Bookends, Harbour Records, The Newsagent in Emsworth Square, The Community Centre, and online from WeGotTickets.

Why Not Sponsor a Barrel?

If you or your business are interested in sponsoring a barrel for the Festival we’d love to hear from you.  Sponsorship costs only £100; you will receive 4 free tickets for you and your friends and advertising on our promotional material and at the event.  Most importantly you will be helping to ensure the financial viability of a great local event.  Cheers!
