Saturday 29th and Sunday 30th August

Our Cider Festival Weekend returns for another unforgettable summer celebration, and it is set to be bigger and better than ever.

Spread across two days, this event has become a firm favourite in the club calendar. It brings together a fantastic range of ciders, great music, and a relaxed, festival-style atmosphere that is perfect for the bank holiday weekend.

Throughout the weekend, the club will be buzzing with activity. Friends and families will gather, glasses will be raised, and the Gin Pit will once again come alive with that unique blend of sport and social spirit.

Even if cider is not your usual choice, there will be plenty of options behind the bar, so everyone can join in and enjoy the occasion.

It is more than just a festival. It is a celebration of the club, the community, and the summer season.
