The perfect pint-sized summer festival comes to the lazy lawns of Alexandra Gardens for five days and nights from 12-16 August. The Festival promises a great line up of established names along with rising stars from the worlds of traditional jazz, funk, Latin and blues. What better way to celebrate the British summer?

All senses will be satisfied with a huge range of real ales, ciders and summer brews from the best of British breweries at the Real Ale Garden and the Cider Orchard, along with bottled beers and summer cocktails at Bar Fiesta along with a Festival Soul Foods area. This official CAMRA (Campaign for Real Ale) Festival is in the perfect setting on the Thames riverside, with stunning views up to the Castle, and it’s all washed down with the perfect accompaniments – great music, and, fingers crossed, some great summer sunshine!

The music stage will be featuring an eclectic mix of summer sounds; from chilled lunchtimes to energetic evening sessions. The music will just keep on coming from 12.30pm to 10.00pm. This year’s line-up includes funk legends James Taylor Quartet, The Chicago Blues Brothers and TJ Johnson along with ska heroes Los Albertos and the sweet Bossa Nova vibes of Jandira Silva, among others.
