Beer Festival

16 - 18 July 2010

Our 9th annual Beer Festival will be held from Friday 16 to Sunday 18 July 2010. Beer, food, drink and entertainment are all available over the three days at Sheringham station.

Our Beer Festival is now firmly established in the beer (and rail) enthusiasts' calendar. This year's festival promises to be even bigger and better than ever, we look forward to seeing you there!

The frequent service on the Bittern Line from Norwich via North Walsham and Cromer to Sheringham (roughly every hour) means that Festival goers can safely drink without driving: the last train back at night is the 11.46 pm from the Bittern Line station just across the road.

Beer

Sample some of East Anglia's Finest Ales plus other great favourites from around the country. This year we are expecting 90 different ales and traditional ciders to be on offer over the weekend. A full list is available here.
