With over 75 real ales and ciders priced at £3.50 a pint, a prosecco bar, live local bands and fabulous food, it promises to be another memorable event.

This year’s festival takes place on Saturday, September 28 from 12pm-12am and with the Thame Food Festival also being held on the nearby Showground, you can make a day of it.

Chinnor RFC Beerfest Committee member Steve Bridges said: “We are delighted to announce the rugby club’s Beerfest will be on Saturday, September 28.

“It will be a busy weekend for the community and a great chance to sample the best food and beer festivals in Thame.

“The Beerfest is open to everyone, run by volunteers and with the help of our incredible local live bands, it will be a day to remember.”

Entry is £10 and includes a free pint, while we will also be showing the World Cup games earlier in the day and there will be prizes for the best dressed Herr and Fraulein.

There will be entertainment on the pitch with our 2nd XV at home, while top live bands including TBWNN, Transit, Bootlegger, The Shakedown, Thank Frank, Rodney Quakes and Memphis Rattlesnakes will perform in the evening.

Families are more than welcome and, as the World Cup is taking place in Japan, we have ordered sumo suits. There is also an inflatable bungee run and face painting for children.

Come along and support this local tradition!
