Beer Festival coming up at Holy Trinity its also Minerva Gin Festival Friday and Saturday. I got tickets for the Gin Festival months ago for the Friday night. Then...FFS Anyone else got tickets to go to either events/
My gran used to live next to Minerva in the sheltered housing before she passed, bet she used to sneak into the Gin Festival with some of the oldsters back in the day
I'm going on Friday daytime for the beer festival with some lads from work. I'm taking some cans of Stella in a carrier bag, balls to that real ale nonsense. I've booked Saturday off.
I got into Gin on a trip to Brighton last November. I like a good Beer Featival, we have a few smaller ones locally but the one in Stockport is worth a trip.
I'm blaming you dont worry about that. Its all your fault. You knew there was one last year Chazz. Get it booked you said. Stop fannying about you said. So i booked it and what happens City get their game changed to Friday night!!! All your fault.
Agree Stockport Beer Festival is one of the best - I go every year. The annual Manchester Whisky Festival is always recommended too. £20 entrance fee, (if booked in advance) and then unlimited free whisky for 4 hours. They also have Gin and other spirits too nowadays.
I did the same for Friday...but I'm still off to drink gin. I'd recommend Holy Trinity but don't leave it until Saturday as it will all be gone!
I was going to go to the gin festival (12.30-5pm) but im at a wedding now :/ sooo i have two tickets for the Saturday £10 for both? anyone?
Not sure, but I went one Saturday before City a previous year and the choice was very limited even then. To be fair they maybe realise and cater for longer now, I don't know. I may go Thursday night
I wouldn't leave it any longer if I were you.12 would be better . I'll never get the Mrs there for that time.itl be 1pm for me
Yeah it is Won't make much difference though as the £5 entry on other times gives you a free drink and your glass deposit (I think)
The Gin festival starts at 6pm till 12. Is it best to get there for 6 or are you ok going at 8. Don't want to miss it but the mrs is moaning about going out at 6. Advice appreciated
