Festival celebrates 25th anniversary with new name

The 25th CAMRA Bristol Beer & Cider Festival will run from 14-17 November at City Hall, College Green boasting more than 70 real ales plus 30 ciders and perries.

The festival is organised and run by the Bristol & District CAMRA branch, and tickets are on sale at: https://tckty.camra.org.uk/e/281/camra-bristol-beer-cider-festival-2024

Branch chair Richard Brooks said: “Our beer festival has always stocked cider and perry alongside the beer and we thought that it was time for the name of the event to reflect this. So, we have renamed it from the Bristol Beer Festival to the Bristol Beer & Cider Festival.

“This year will be our 25th festival since we started them back in 1997 and we continue to tweak the range of beers to offer a good selection of styles from our local breweries and those further afield.

“We do have some advantages over commercially run beer festivals. Not only do we offer customers better value for money, but they get the great experience of being served by a fellow enthusiast who has volunteered to be there. Following last year’s festival, we invited customers to complete a survey, and in the feedback received there was much praise for the sociable atmosphere and our friendly, helpful staff.”

Tickets for all sessions include tokens worth £5 plus a festival programme and commemorative glass.
