Prices & tickets
Ticket prices and packages will be announced shortly.
CAMRA Members
CAMRA members pay full price for entry but can collect vouchers for two free half pints of cask beer or cider from the CAMRA Information desk.
Note: While we work in association with Trafford & Hulme CAMRA, our festival is not a CAMRA organised event therefore free entry for members does not apply.
Pass outs
Pass outs are allowed. You must obtain a stamp or writsband. If you choose to leave the site, re-entry will be subject to capacity at time of return. If site is full, entry will be one out, one in.
Bars
There will be seven bars across the site. Layout will be conformed nearer the time.
Tokens
Payment at all beer, cider & gin bars is by token only. Tokens are available from the tent on the right hand side just inside the entrance (click here for site plan) in £10 and £20 sheets. Your server will strike out the value of each drink you purchase.
Tokens can be purchased with cash or card.
We will be continuing our trial or making making drinks tokens available from the two cask bars and the keg bar plus from roaming token sellers around the grounds. This will be subject to the technology working with us (which it didn’t really in 2025!).
Unused value on part used tokens can be refunded to the nearest full pound only up to 15 minutes after the bars close but we would encourage all unused value to be donated to the festival charity. We would encourage you to only purchase the value of tokens you intend to use – partial tokens to top up value of one last pint can be purchased at the tokens desk (card payments only, the tokens desk does not have change).
Children
The festival welcomes well behaved children on Saturday from 1pm – 7pm. Children will be admitted free of charge.
A range of activities for small children will be provided on the lawn to the front of the church (St Clement’s Road side) organised by Chorlton CofE Primary School PTA.
Please note that children must be accompanied by a parent or guardian at all times. If your children are found to be disturbing the enjoyment of other festival goers, you may be asked to leave.
