A live band is all part of the fun at the Beerlovers Evening session!

We have had many live acts over the last 17 years of Datchet Beer Festival and every time the dance floor is full and jumping! It's always a great party atmosphere for everyone and even the most reluctant dancers seem to find their groove at this ever-popular session.

From 7pm to 11pm on Saturday 31st October it’s the
The Beerlover’s Evening.

If you have been to Datchet Beer Festival before then you will know what the 'original' Beerlover's Evening is all about!

Great ales and ciders, fantastic 'get up and dance' live music from our festival band,mouth-watering food and refreshments to complement the ale, a grand raffle and a great atmosphere! All the while you'll be doing your bit for charity.
