Friday 30th & Saturday 31st January 2009 - 1st Bristol Winter Cider Festival at Brunel Passenger Shed, British Empire & Commonwealth Museum, Station Approach, Temple Meads, Bristol BS1 6QH
Opening times: Friday 7.30pm-11.30pm; Saturday 11.00am-4pm & 7.30pm-11.30pm
Admission: Tickets £6.00 in advance; more on the door. Any unsold tickets will be made available on the door - but buying your tickets in advance is highly recommended as this sold out last year. Tickets on sale from the Pavilion Box Office soon.
Details: The 1st Bristol Cider Festival was a great success, so CiderFestival.co.uk have booked the awesome Brunel Passenger Shed at the British Empire & Commonwealth Museum in Temple Meads, Bristol for two cider festivals in 2009. The end of January sees the first, another epic two-day cider festival to kick those post-Christmas blues away. On offer will be over 80 ciders and perries including award-winning ciders from Ben Crossman's, Rich's, Thatchers, Broadoak and Heck's (Somerset), Weston's and Gwatkin (Herefordshire), Gwynt Y Ddraig (Wales), and Mr. Whiteheads (Hampshire) - as well as hog roast rolls and hot dogs, and a range of soft drinks for the drivers.
As well as the cider and perry, the Bristol Cider Festival will offer the best in local entertainment. Somerset's premier Wurzels tribute band The Mangledwurzels (www.mangledwurzels.co.uk) will be playing a full show at all three sessions (no more Meatloaf tributes!), providing their own brand of Wurzels-flavoured, cider-fuelled Scrumpy & Western madness to help you drink up thy cider. The Mangledwurzels have played at all CiderFestivals.co.uk festivals across the country from Norwich to Swansea - and are guaranteed to entertain.
