The event, which will be hosted on Friday, May 26, and Saturday, May 27, will feature more than 60 real ales and ciders, as well as music and food. Hosted at Southwick Community Centre, the festival will feature a choice of 40 ales carefully selected by Steve Bennett from the Camra award-winning Stanley Arms, as well as a large selection of ciders, including some local specialities. Local cider makers will be at the festival for special “Meet the Makers” sessions. Piglets Pantry, of Amex Stadium fame, will be providing home cooked food as well as the return of the Festival BBQ with locally produced burgers and jumbo sausages from a local butcher.

The bands booked for this year will include Burning Organ on Friday evening. On Saturday afternoon, The Skaletons marching Ska band, who have supported Madness, will be entertaining in the garden. KXB, rock legends and Beer Festival icons, will be ending the festival on Saturday evening.
