30 REAL ALES FROM 26 BREWERIES ALL IN NORFOLK OR SUFFOLK

ABOUT BECCLES LIDO LIMITED Beccles Lido Limited was set up in 2009 to acquire the old, neglected heated open air swimming pool in Beccles.

Since establishing Beccles Lido as a successful award winning, community run attraction, BLL now also owns and manages the equally successful Beccles Public Hall and Big Dog Ferry.

All the Directors are unpaid volunteers, as are all of the people involved in the running of the Beer Festival.

For further information please visit our websites: www.BecclesLido.com www.BecclesPublicHall.com www.BigDogFerry.co.uk

The Beer Festival is the major annual fundraiser for Beccles Lido. We also run a monthly Lottery - application forms are available today or on our website. Thank you for supporting us.

We hope you enjoy the Beer Festival and your time at the Public Hall - which runs a full program of events. Please take a programme and we look forward to seeing you again very soon!
