Tickets have been released for Norwich Beer Festival, which returns to its traditional home of The Halls in the city from 26th to 31st October.
Festival visitors in The Halls in 2023
All members of the public can book their entrance, official festival glass and drink tokens from the Norwich and District CAMRA branch website. CAMRA members can also secure free-entry advanced tickets for the first time, avoiding queues. Entry will also be available on the door, by card, with cash, or free for members.
CAMRA have released tickets early, as they are expecting a bumper attendance, due to the festival’s return to its popular home location. The Norwich branch also has a double reason to celebrate — they will be celebrating the group’s 50th anniversary.
The main St Andrew’s Hall will offer a huge choice of beers from across the nation. It will also play host to the cider bar, also offering perries and wine. The Curiosity Bar will be there, too, offering visitors something more unusual.
The second space, Blackfriars Hall, will offer beers in a slightly quieter environment. Thirdly — and most importantly for many — the World Beer Bar will once again be downstairs in the marquee.
“As always, entry will be free to CAMRA members, including those joining during the festival,” said organiser Craig Harmer. “This year, members have the added advantage of being able to secure free-entry tickets in advance, to secure their place.”
He added: “With its popular return to The Halls, we urge people to pre-book to guarantee entry. We’re looking forward to what promises to be an exciting week, giving thousands the opportunity to sample beers not usually found locally, whilst soaking up the traditional and unique historic Halls complex.
Norwich and District CAMRA’s newly-appointed chair, Lucy Cousins, said: “The 47th Norwich Beer Festival promises to celebrate our long-awaited return to The Halls in style, with the very best of beers and ciders.”
