Chance to snap up early tickets to Beer & Cider by the Sea
19th December 2024
Beer & Cider by the Sea will return in 2025, with advance tickets now on sale for the annual three-day music, food and drink festival.
Returning to the Western Lawns from Friday 16 – Sunday 18 May, the festival now in its 12th year, features more than 100 real ales, craft beers, cask ciders and perries, with the majority showcasing local Sussex producers.
Bottled beers, gins, Pimm’s, Prosecco, wines and cocktails will also be on offer with live music at all sessions on stage in the festival marquee, ranging from tribute shows and cover bands to jazz and acoustic sets.
Supported by CAMRA, their members will be on hand at each session to guide visitors through the carefully selected tipples available, from quirky micro-breweries to established names, with some specially brewed for the occasion.
Festival goers will also have a choice of tasty food stalls offering a range of cuisines, which regularly range from Asian and Mediterranean to handcrafted burgers.
Sessions at the festival frequently sell out in advance and fans are advised to book ahead to secure tickets early.
Councillor Margaret Bannister, Eastbourne Borough Council’s Lead Member for Tourism, Leisure, Accessibility & Community Safety, said, “Beer & Cider by the Sea is the perfect way to kick off the summer vibe on the seafront lawns with a sensational menu - all washed down with superb live entertainment.
“It is always hugely popular with music fans and beer and cider fans alike. Do get this date in the diary now with your friends and family, as tickets won’t be around for too long!”
