9th Emsworth Beer, Wine, & Cider Festival

Our 9th Emsworth Beer, Wine, & Cider Festival will have around 25 delicious cask-conditioned ales from near and far, including interesting local brews and national award winners, along with a number of excellent ciders. We will be joined by two of Emsworth’s independent wine merchants, Bush Vines and Vin Wine Merchants, who will be providing a range of wines by the glass. Please note we do not stock ales which you will find in the Emsworth area – we source from as far afield as Scotland's Northern Isles!

Local musicians will perform at all sessions. All profits from ticket and bar sales go towards supporting WemsFest (an entirely volunteer-run community interest company) to deliver world-class live music at very local venues - in addition to bringing musical workshops into local schools for Black History Month in October!

The Festival is held in the Emsworth Community Centre, a short walk from Emsworth Station and a stone’s throw from the 700 bus route. The Community Centre is at the bottom of North Street, just north of the roundabout, between Emsworth Medical Practice and the Fire Station.

We will have an outdoor seating area, subject to the weather, and an additional large ‘quiet’ room inside where we will show silent films and where you can play cards or board games.

Tickets include a souvenir glass, programme and your first pint of beer or cider, or glass of wine.

There are four sessions:

Friday 19th September – 5.00pm – 10.30pm – £12.50
Saturday 20th September – 11am – 5.00pm – £12.50

You can buy one of our glasses or bring one of your own – just make sure it’s properly marked at pint or half pint. You can also bring your own clean 2 or 4 pint container if you’d like to take any beer home.
