Glastonwick 2007

Glastonwick 2007 is the 12th annual beer, music, poetry and more beer festival.

Held at Church Farm, Coombes from Friday 15th June to Sunday 17th June, Glastonwick promise a weekend of enormous quantities of delicious real ale (including many new brews as usual), farmhouse cider, perry, and top quality entertainment.

Frequent trains run to Shoreham from Brighton, Worthing (both only 10 minutes away by train) and other stations along the West Coastway Line. From there, you just need to jump on the special shuttle bus linking the festival with Shoreham High Street and Railway Station, Southwick Square and Manor Hall Road, and Portslade.

This year camping is offered on site for £3 per night (Friday and Saturday), but you MUST book in advance if you wish to camp on site.

The festival is open from 6pm to midnight on the Friday, 12 noon to midnight on the Saturday, and 12 noon to 6pm on Sunday.

There will be about 65 cask-conditioned ales, all from small independent breweries - mostly unusual but with a few 'old favourites'. About 10 farmhouse ciders and perries, and plenty of food including vegetarian options.

There will be entertainment compered by Attila the Stockbroker. On the Friday evening there will be performances from Neck, Paul Simmons, Robb Johnson & The Irregulars, Tracey Curtis, and Geronimo Arkwright.
