Friday 12th June Evening

Rhythm City

Rhythm City are a very popular six piece, highly energetic party band whose number one intention is to get you to wear away the soles of your dancing shoes. Their live shows will take you on a legendary walkway from the fifties right through to this very day, including hits such as Johnny B Goode, Twist and Shout, Proud Mary, Teenage Kicks, Summer of 69, Save Tonight, Seven Nation Army, Happy and Uptown Funk to name a few.

Quiz Quiz

We will be testing your grey matter by bringing you our beer festival paper based quiz. Can you impress your friends by showing you could be the next ‘Egghead’ or are you more akin to being ‘The Weakest Link’?

Unlike other festivals organised by Southern Hampshire CAMRA, the venue prohibits food and drink being brought into the festival. The venue will be selling a range of food and soft drinks for consumption at the festival.
