What can you look forward to?

There will be 75 beers from around the country and to satisfy everyone’s choice, a selection of cider and wine. There will be the usual fantastic music all weekend: 19 hours of live music, with top names and bands entertaining on two stages.

How much is entry?

Entry is £15 in advance or £18 on the day. For this you receive a 2025 commemorative glass and have access to all the live music throughout the weekend. We are restricted by how many customers we can accommodate, so to avoid disappointment we recommend that you purchase your tickets in advance.

Where can I buy tickets?

When they are released, tickets can be purchased from advance, either in person from the venue or online. A limited number will be available on the gate at the event. 

Can a business get involved?

If you are a business you can also get involved by sponsoring barrels of beer. Click here for more information.

What makes Bransgore Beer Fest so special?

The Festival is organised by Bransgore Rotary with the help of many volunteers. All profits from the event go to carefully chosen charities locally, nationally and internationally. In the year ending June 2024 Bransgore Rotary donated £26,000 to charitable causes.

Are there tasting notes for the Beer?

We choose our beers very carefully in the weeks up to the event, but inevitably some beers become unavailable and replaced at the last minute. We will know exactly what beers we have to offer on the Thursday before the weekend so keep an eye on this space.

Is there food available?

Bransgore and Burton Scouts will be selling burgers and wraps on Friday and Saturday.

What happens if it rains?

We have two massive marquees, so you will not get wet.

Are Dogs allowed?

We do allow dogs, but please bear in mind there will be a lot of people and noise.

Is it suitable for Children?

While the event is primarily aimed at over 18s, we fully recognise that families like to enjoy our Festival.  So, Yes, we allow children.  However, to ensure the wellbeing of everyone attending the event, it is vital that children are kept under close adult supervision at all times, and in all areas of the venue. This is especially important during the busiest periods.  

Our primary aim is to provide an enjoyable experience of beer and music whilst safeguarding our customers.  To that end, we will have additional trained security staff on duty who will be briefed on the need to be vigilant

Is there parking?

The car park at The Three Tuns is very limited. There is a free car park behind the Co Op in Bransgore which is a 10 min walk, or there is street parking.

Is there Public Transport?

Unfortunately there are no buses. Taxi’s are very limited late on Friday and Saturday night, so we recommend booking in advance. United Taxis can be booked on 01202 556677

Where can I stay?

Harrow Wood  is the nearest Caravan site, with The New Forest Caravan/Motorhome and Holmsley Campsite, a little further out. There is a Premier Inn in Christchurch or the 5 star Chewton Glen in Walkford.
