Tickets are now available for a 'family friendly' beer and music festival at Kenilworth Rugby Club this spring.

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 over the weekend. 

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

Tickets can be purchased for specific times across the weekend and are available on an individual, family or group basis.

Guests can also by a pass for the whole 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 last month, Kenilworth RFC chairman, Johnny Marsh said: "It feels really good to finally break-cover with this event; it's been on ice for nearly two years, having originally been postponed due to the pandemic.

"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."

Anyone interested in sponsoring the event or volunteering please contact Jai Purewal at [email protected] or call 07968 135 023.
