Eastbourne Beer Festival returns to the Winter Garden this year from 27 - 29 October and with Friday night always proving the most popular selling out before the event, this year�s ticket sales have surpassed all expectations selling quicker than ever before in only two weeks. Those who missed out on Friday night tickets still have chance to book for the Thursday or Saturday evening sessions or for the Saturday day session, with a special 2 for 1 ticket offer on Thursday night. Eastbourne Borough Council Cabinet Member for Tourism, Cllr Neil Stanley said �Eastbourne Beer Festival really is the must go to event judging by the way tickets have already flown out the door!

The event promises a fantastic selection of real ales, ciders, fine wines and perries and combined with plenty of live music and entertainment, Eastbourne Beer Festival promises a great night out!� The Beer Festival drinks menu contains more than 150 real ales from across the globe; from Legless Rambler made just down the road at Beachy Head Brewery to Brahma Crop and Mac�s Gold.
