The Somerley Beer and Music Festival is back for its 7th year and its bigger than ever before. This is a great family event with something for everyone to enjoy.
NEW: On Friday evening the Festival will kick off from 6pm to mark the start of this long weekend. A fun, party vibe with a bespoke selection of great food vendors, a full bar and live music from The Funk Bunnies will have you relaxing into the weekend and dancing before you know it. Numbers will be limited so book early to be part of this fun Friday Night Kick-Off!
Saturday remains the main event, with gates opening at 12 noon - 12 midnight. This year there'll have more live bands throughout the day, a great selection of street food, children's entertainments including a play tent, bouncy castle and face painting, ferret racing, the famous Yard of Ale competition and not forgetting the fabulous bar offering 160+ real ales and ciders (with gluten and alcohol-free varieties, wine, Champagne and Pimm's). Bands this year include: Dickie Hart & The Pace Makers, Jolly & the Lightweight, Peach and the Prairie Dogs, The Orange Circus Band, The Old Country Crows and The Zucchinis.
After the usual day of fun, music, beer and action on the Saturday, this year will also included Sunday morning in the ticket price for Weekend Ticket holders and Saturday night campers. The Walled Garden will be open until midday on Sunday to allow you to recover in the sunshine and grab some brekkie. Thank goodness it's a bank holiday weekend and you'll have another day to recover...!
The event will be starting earlier and finishing later, so come and camp, stay for the weekend and soak up the fun, the atmosphere and a enjoy the wide selection of real ale and ciders.
Camping fields will be set in the beautiful parkland adjacent to the Walled Garden; book early to ensure your space. (Regrettably they are not able to allow doggies into the Festival or onto the Estate).
