Early bird ticket release for charity beer festival

The first tickets for the popular Newquay Beer Festival go on sale today with a special offer price.

The popular charity event, organised by Newquay Towan Blystra Lions, returns later this year and has already raised more than £130,000 for good causes since it began in 2013.

The festival will take place from Friday 18 to Sunday 20 September at Hendra Holiday Park, featuring a packed weekend of hand-picked beers, ciders, live music and entertainment.

Visitors will be able to enjoy a range of food, a lively atmosphere and the chance to support local good causes within the community.

This year’s festival promises more than 40 ales and ciders, alongside other drink options including non-alcoholic choices. A line-up of more than 30 singers, bands and acts is also planned.

Ticket sales for the early bird offer, with a 40% saving, open at 6pm tonight and are available until 10am Monday 4 May.
