Preparations in full swing for beer and cider festival
TICKETS FOR ‘MORE COMPREHENSIVE’ TRENT BRIDGE EVENT ON SALE
TICKETS for the 2022 Robin Hood Beer and Cider Festival are now on sale.
Following a successful staging in 2021, Trent Bridge will again play host to Nottingham CAMRA’S flagship event in October, from Wednesday 12 to Saturday 15.
The 2022 edition of the festival will feature an expanded range of bars and barrels extending across additional concourse areas, with extra seats available within the venue and new hospitality packages.
Festival-goers can secure their tickets at last year’s prices during the early-bird window, which runs until August 31, with admission available from £10 at tickets.trentbridge.co.uk
“Trent Bridge proved to be the ideal partner for us last year, and we couldn’t be more delighted to be returning to a venue which provides a real sense of occasion,” said Nottingham CAMRA chair Steve Westby. “With more space available to our festival site this year, we look forward to providing an even more comprehensive list of beers, ciders and perries for guests to savour.
“From old favourites to newer creations, and with Nottingham’s most esteemed breweries standing shoulder-to-shoulder with choice ales from across the country, we’re building a drinks list of real breadth and depth, and we can’t wait to share it with our visitors.”
Guests who choose to enhance their experience with hospitality will enjoy four bowl food dishes in Trent Bridge’s Derek Randall Suite, accompanied by expertly-paired beers. Visitors will also be able to put their questions to the experts in a Meet the Brewer Q&A session, and explore some of the more fabled corners of the venue on a guided tour.
“For many, visiting a beer festival is about more than merely sampling some of the choice ales on offer; there’s a real desire to understand more about the roots of a drink and the tale of its creation,” said Nottinghamshire commercial director Michael Temple.
“The opportunity for our hospitality guests to gain insight from the brewers can only serve to deepen their experience.
“And while the festival will have all the hallmarks that have made it such a success at locations across the city, we want to make sure this has a uniquely Trent Bridge flavour, too.
“Whether guests take tours of the nooks and crannies of our home, or simply soak up the splendour of the ground from their seat, we feel our historic surroundings will complement the festivities on offer.”
