Planning is now well ahead for our next Bedford festival in October. There will be several changes from the last festival, including a new bar layout and more seating downstairs.There will be no professional caterer this year, but appetising rolls and snacks will be bought in from a local supplier. You can rely on us to offer a broad choice of quality real ales and real ciders. Watch this page for further news.

Support from branch members is essential to make the festival a success. If you are a local CAMRA member and have time to offer, please volunteer by clicking the link to our BBCF45 volunteering form and register your details and the times you can offer.YOUR FESTIVAL NEEDS YOU!
