Raise a glass for the 26th Sussex Beer & Cider Festival

Alice Blezard January 24, 2016

Brighton Corn Exchange will host the 26th Sussex CAMRA Branches Beer & Cider Festival from Thursday 17 to Saturday 19 of March 2016.

26th  Beer & Cider Festival

With sales of real ale showing no signs of slowing down, the event will see more than 160 beers from across the UK including some new beer launches from Sussex breweries. A large selection of ciders and perries will also be available alongside an excellent selection of British and foreign bottled beers to drink on the day or take away.

This year all beers will be cooled throughout the festival, meaning that it should be in the same excellent condition on the Saturday evening as it is when the event opens on Thursday 17. Bear in mind that popular beers can sell very quickly, and as it takes at least 48hrs for beers to settle, cannot be replaced.

A variety of food will also be on sale throughout the festival, with both vegetarian and vegan options available as well as a selection of soft drinks.

If you are lucky enough to look under 25 years old then please bring photo ID and note that all attendees must be over 18 to gain admission.

Advance tickets are available now from Evening Star, Brighton; Gardener’s Arms, Lewes; Duke of Wellington, Shoreham-by-Sea; Selden Arms, Worthing; and Beer Essentials, Horsham.

For postal sales please state which session(s) you require and enclose a 9×4 SAE with your cheque, made payable to “Sussex CAMRA Beer & Cider Festival” and send to SBB&CF Ticket Sales, 16 Connell Drive, Woodingdean, Brighton, BN2 6RT.

No refunds will be processed after March 9 2016.
