Beer and cider drinkers are reminded that the Old Town Beer and cider festival returns this weekend for the first ‘proper’ time since the last pre pandemic event in May 2019.
A smaller event was held last year as the town recovered from covid but this year sees the return of the two day event.
The annual fundraiser for the Church and the Community Centre takes place at Christ Church, Old Town on Friday 13th (6-11pm) and Saturday 14th May (12noon-10pm) with 48 beers and 29 ciders on offer.
This weekend sees the start of the League Two play offs and Swindon Town have agreed to open the event with Chief Executive Rob Angus in attendance as well as a player if training schedules allow.
Tickets cost £15 for both the Friday evening (6-11pm) and the Saturday day session from 12noon.
Full price Tickets include a free drink, a commemorative glass and a festival brochure.
If you just fancy popping along for the Saturday evening tickets are available from at the reduced price of £5 (glass and brochure only).
Jason Putt, one of the main sponsors at the Hop said “I am delighted to be able to support the Old Town beer festival, we have seen the event grow along with ourselves, we are now thriving again in both the Hop and Little Hop and look forward to seeing many of you at the event and also at The Hop”.
