As a result of Covid-19 this year’s Cheltenham Craft Beer festival in aid of The Samaritan’s is a virtual event
How to join the Virtual Festival
For a bargain price of just £25, beer drinkers in Cheltenham and Tewkesbury can get a box of beers delivered straight to their door by one of the Friends team (following strict social distancing). Within the box will be a selection of 6 outstanding Craft Beers from local breweries (Arbor Ales, Cotswold Lion, DEYA Brewing Co., Hillside Brewery, Left Handed Giant and Purity Brewing Co) along with a festival beer glass (from a previous festival).
Tickets for this event are limited to just under 200 and will be allocated on a First Come, First Served basis. Deliveries are limited to Cheltenham Postcodes (GL50, GL51, GL52 and GL53 as far as Severn Springs) and to Tewkesbury (including Mitton, Priors Park, Northway and Ashchurch).
All proceeds raised from this event are going to the Cheltenham and District Samaritans.
