Bollington Beer Festival

For the third consecutive year, The Bollington Brewing Company is delighted to be supporting the Bollington Beer Festival, taking place at Bollington Arts Centre. All profits from this popular event will go to good causes in the local community.

As well as being the main sponsors of the beer festival, The Bollington Brewing Company team help to coordinate the occasion, providing knowledge and experience gained over the last few years running similar events, including the successful Bollington Festival Pub.

The Bollington Beer Festival takes place over two days, offering a variety of 40 beers and 15 ciders, many of them brewed locally, including Bollington Brewing Company Festivale and Bollington Best. Food is also available, with delicious paella, pulled pork and chicken tagine on the menu. Live music includes jazz, a Samba band, the Bollington Brass Band and popular Stockport-based folk group, ‘Maguffin’.

Director of The Bollington Brewing Company, Lee Wainwright, says: “This is such a fun event and a great way to get people in the community together. The past two beer festivals have been really successful and we’ve raised thousands of pounds for the Bollington Festival and Bollington Arts Centre. This year we’re fundraising for others too and are keen for people to nominate worthwhile causes, which you can do online.”

The beer festival also provides a great opportunity for businesses and individuals to sponsor a barrel. For just £50 for a cask of cider and £100 for a cask of ale you can have your name displayed on the front of the barrel as well as being listed in the programme. You also receive one ticket for every £25 of sponsorship that allows entry to any of the three festival sessions.

Tickets for the Friday night session are SOLD OUT, but you can still buy tickets for two sessions on Saturday 26th July (12pm – 5pm) and the same day (6pm until 11pm).

Tickets cost £6 and are available to buy from the Poachers Inn and The Vale Inn in Bollington, The Park Tavern, The Wharf and Treacle Tap in Macclesfield and The Cask Tavern in Poynton. Tickets can also be purchased online.
