Haslemere Beer Festival 2012

23/07/2012

Haslemere Beer Festival returns for its sixth year with more than 50 Real Ales, Ciders  and Perries to enjoy!

Friday and Saturday evenings are from 7pm to 11pm and feature a selection of great local bands organised by Mike Upjohn of Buskers Express. Saturday lunchtime between midday and 4pm has a laid back atmosphere to while away the afternoon.
Hot food featuring local produce will be available at each session.

From humble beginnings the Festival is now well and truly on the real ale map with visitors from across South East England and beyond! We expect around 1000 people to attend this year.

The festival is a not for profit event with three main objectives:
•    To promote local and regional businesses
•    To create a really enjoyable event for the community
•    To raise money for charity.

This year the festival are more determined than ever to raise as much money as possible for charity despite rising costs. We are supporting are Disability Challengers, Action for A-T, Haslemere Hall and JDRF.

Simon Labrow explained "two of my nephews both in their early teens were diagnosed with type 1 diabetes this year. They have shown tremendous courage coming to terms with this life changing condition. I really hope together we can raise lots of money for JDRF, who use donations to fund research to cure, treat and prevent type 1 diabetes and the other charities, which are of course no less important.”
