TAMESIDE Beer Festival is poised to return to its roots later this year as it ‘comes home’ to Stalybridge.
The popular festival, organised by Tameside Rotary, was successfully held at Hyde Town Hall in the past two years.
But it’s set to return to Stalybridge Civic Hall, which has had its roof replaced and is becoming a multi-use space.
The festival, which will hold its 13th edition this year, is an established part of the Tameside social calendar and always supports good causes.
Proceeds from the 2025 event will be split between Willow Wood Hospice and The Christie.
It will take place on Friday, September 19, and Saturday, September 20, with doors expected to open at midday on both days.
Rotarians are still finalising preparations for the event which always attracts visitors from across Tameside and beyond.
Entry will be £4 and, as always, there will be a range of over 30 beers, lagers, ciders and wines to sample, as well as food and live music.
Entertainment will be provided by headline acts The Company of Strangers on Friday and the Potcheen Chasers on Saturday, from 8pm on both evenings. St John’s Brass Band in Mossley will also be performing at 6.30pm on Saturday.
Tameside Rotary say the event would not be possible without the support of local businesses and volunteers.
