About Us

It is the 15th year of the Weston Lions Charity Real Ale & Cider Festival….. and there's plenty to look forward to on Weston's Beach Lawns.

Throughout the weekend of 26, 27 and 28th July there will be an extensive array of ciders and beers to enjoy plus a fantastic line-up of bands and live music.

Here's the live music schedule:

Friday 26th; from 6pm we will be hosting two of Weston’s finest bands Reoffender and The Tannoys, with everything from Punk to Pink Floyd.

Saturday 27th; live music starts at 2pm with an acoustic set from the very talented Ben & Seb followed by one of Weston’s local legends, Joe Malik. The stage then opens up for two hard hitting party and function bands The Jury and Hovis.

Sunday 28th; starting at 1pm with sea shanties froThe Steepholmers alongside a great selection of popular covers from Start of Time. To end a great weekend, we will have the amazing Mangled Wurzels  to help us empty all the remaining barrels with a good humoured singalong.
