ABOUT
Wedmore Real Ale Festival
We have been running a real ale festival in Wedmore since 2001 with three main objectives:
- Educate our guests about real ale
- Raise money for local worthy causes. We are a not for profit event
- Give everyone a great time
Over the years our festival has grown into what it has become today, and we are very proud that our three main objectives still hold strong when we look to continually develop the festival to incorporate new ideas.
If you have not been before please come along we promise you will have a great time, offering you a wide choice of ales, ciders, craft beers, wine and gin bar. We also have food options on site and entertainment throughout the weekend. The festival is normally held around the middle of September and this year’s date is displayed on the right hand side of this page.
As this is a voluntary organised event, we are always looking for more support to help us put on this event, so if you are interested in volunteering your assistance, supporting us by taking up one of our sponsorship opportunities or able to offer something for our raffle/auction, then it would be very much appreciated. To find out more, please get in touch.
We look forward to seeing you all in September.
