Event Details

On 3rd July the ale amblers head to Warwick.

Our first pub will be The Wild Boar, down the road at the back of the station, which opens at 12.00.

After a brief stop we will catch a bus outside the Wild Boar in the direction of the Cape of Good Hope(bring bus passes). Posh Sarnies can be purchased there. We will then catch another bus to the town centre where, hopefully, we will have time to visit the Four Penny Pub, the Old Post Office, the Dough & Brew, the Eagle, the Craftsman Bar and the New Bowling Green.

Most places sell food, some on the pricey side, but none appear to sell the ever popular cobs! Therefore, you may wish to bring your own. Alternatively, there is a Greggs and a Wetherspoons in the Town Centre.

The details of the proposed trains are:

OUT: depart Cheltenham Spa 09.59, arrive Birmingham New Street 10.45
Walk to Birmingham Moor Street and catch 11.15, arrive Warwick 11.47

IN: depart Warwick 18.36, arrive Birmingham Moor Street 19.04
Walk to Birmingham New Street and catch 19.30, arrive Cheltenham Spa 20.14

Best fare with railcard (unless you can do better) is to buy an Anytime Day Return from Cheltenham Spa to Worcestershire Parkway £7.15 and an Off Peak Day Return from Worcestershire Parkway to Warwick £11.70.
Total £18.85 (trains must stop at Worcestershire Parkway – the above do)

If you want greater flexibility an Off Peak Day Return from Cheltenham Spa to Warwick costs £24.70

Event Details

The 48th Cotswold Beer Festival returns from Friday 17th to Sunday 19th July 2026 and we can’t wait to welcome you back.

Expect a carefully curated range of 110+ (as always!) cask ales, following last year’s early sell out we will be doubling up on some popular beers and only opening the second cask on Saturday afternoon, alongside 45 ciders and perries.

It all takes place in the unique surroundings of Postlip Hall and it’s Tithe barn

Food-wise, we keep things simple and well done: wood-fired pizza across the weekend, SriLicious bringing bold flavours on Saturday, and the much-loved Postlip Burger BBQ back once again.

We’re still fine-tuning the live music and finalising the full beer and cider lists, but tickets are now on sale. More details to follow – but in the meantime, tell everyone(!) to get it in the diary.

Sessions Times

Friday 17th July – 6pm-11pm.
Saturday 18th July – 12pm-9pm.
Sunday 19th July – 12pm to 3pm (Subject to beer and cider remaining)

Book before the Early May Bank Holiday for a discount. New this year: All entry tickets now include £5 in beer tokens( to speed up getting your first pint), along with a souvenir pint glass and festival programme.

BUY TICKETS – https://tckty.camra.org.uk/e/515/cotswold-beer-festival-2026

  • Free entry for the whole weekend

KBCF is Back!
After a year’s break in 2025, we are delighted to announce the return of the Kidderminster Beer & Cider Festival. It will take place from Thursday 12th to Saturday 14th November 2026, and again we will be at the Kidderminster Harriers Social & Supporters Club.
As one of relatively few CAMRA festivals taking place in the final months of the year, we would be grateful if you could share this good news with your branch e.g. via newsletter or other comms.
The festival webpage at https://www.wyreforest.camra.org.uk/viewnode.php?id=221189 will be developed further in coming weeks.
Advanced ticket sales – including free entry for CAMRA members – are live at Kidderminster Beer & Cider Festival 2026 – Tckty.
We can only run the festival with the help of our amazing volunteers, who greet visitors, keep everyone safe and of course serve the beers and other drinks. Please consider volunteering at: https://form.jotform.com/261314247188357. Festivals are a great opportunity to come together to promote CAMRA and enjoy real ales, ciders and perries. 
We hope to see you in November. Meanwhile, if you have any questions, please get in touch with us at volunteer@wyreforest.camra.org.uk.
