Organisers are making a last push to sell the remaining tickets for a 'family friendly' beer and music festival at Kenilworth Rugby Club this weekend.

KENFEST will come to the Glasshouse Lane club from Friday 28 to Sunday 30 April, bringing a range of real ales, lagers and ciders - plus craft gins and sparkling wines - along with street food and a variety of live music.

Organised by the club with the help of Warwick District Council, the event is being sponsored by local property agent Bromwich Hardy.

Many of the tickets across the weekend are now sold out, with spaces only remaining for Friday and Sunday night.

Organisers said: "KENFEST last call for remaining tickets for Friday and Sunday night sessions.

"When they are gone they are gone!

"Order your tickets today to avoid disappointment."

Kenilworth Rugby Club has also announced that Warwick-based Slaughterhouse Brewery has also created a special KENFEST Beer for the weekend.

At three per cent ABV, the vegan-friendly brew comes with the tagline "small beer - big flavour".

Organisers have also confirmed there will be a marquee in place in case there is wet weather over the weekend.

The KENFEST Schedule:

  • Friday (4pm-10.30pm): Get your acoustic groove on, easing you into the festival weekend.
  • Saturday Day (11am-5pm): The session will see a mix of acoustic into live band performances.
  • Saturday Night (6pm-11.30pm): Party the night away before the evening at Oktoberfest- KENFEST style. Themed fancy dress encouraged with prizes up for grabs on the night.
  • Sunday Day (11am-5pm): The final day of the festival kicks off with the stage handed over to a variety of youth community groups performing live on stage.
  • Sunday Night (6pm- 10.30pm): Four live bands to play out the Sunday night and bring the curtain down on KENFEST.

Speaking at the event launch in February, Kenilworth RFC chairman, Johnny Marsh said: "Over time, we hope the beer festival will become a mainstay in the town calendar and sit favourably alongside established events such as the fireworks and carnival; like those events, we hope to raise significant funds for local charities."

Tickets can be purchased online, here.
