Are there tasting notes for the Beer?
We choose our beers very carefully in the weeks up to the event, but inevitably some beers become unavailable and replaced at the last minute. We will know exactly what beers we have to offer on the Thursday before the weekend so keep an eye on this space.
Is there food available?
Bransgore and Burton Scouts will be selling burgers and wraps on Friday and Saturday.
What happens if it rains?
We have two massive marquees, so you will not get wet.
Are Dogs allowed?
We do allow dogs, but please bear in mind there will be a lot of people and noise.
Is it suitable for Children?
No children admitted after 7:00pm
All children must vacate the premises by 8:00pm
While the Bransgore Rotary Beer Festival is primarily an 18+ event, we are delighted to welcome families during the daytime, up until 8:00pm.
For the safety and wellbeing of everyone attending, all children must remain under the close supervision of a responsible adult at all times and in all areas of the venue. This is particularly important during busy periods when the festival becomes crowded.
Our aim is to provide a safe, enjoyable and welcoming environment for everyone, while delivering a great experience of beer, music and community spirit.
Thank you for your cooperation in helping us keep the festival safe and enjoyable for all.
Is there parking?
The car park at The Three Tuns is very limited. There is a free car park behind the Co Op in Bransgore which is a 10 min walk, or there is street parking.
Is there Public Transport?
Unfortunately there are no buses. Taxi’s are very limited late on Friday and Saturday night, so we recommend booking in advance. United Taxis can be booked on 01202 556677
Where can I stay?
Harrow Wood is the nearest Caravan site, with The New Forest Caravan/Motorhome and Holmsley Campsite, a little further out. There is a Premier Inn in Christchurch or the 5 star Chewton Glen in Walkford.
