Is there parking?
The cricket club does have a car park but organises warn that this will fill up very quickly due to the volume of visitors expected.
Attendees also cannot park on Penwortham Sports and Social carpark so instead should park elsewhere in the local area in the vicinity of the club.
Is there seating?
Penwortham Beer Festival will have seating and gazebos for visitors but again, organisers say these are likely to fill up quick.
Attendees are allowed to bring their own seating and gazebos, as long as they are removed by the end of the festival.
Are children and dogs allowed?
Yes!
However children must be accompanied by an adult and dogs must be on a lead.
Do I need to buy tickets?
No, tickets are not required for this event.
Instead it is £5 cash on the door and this includes a programme and glass.
How do I buy stuff?
You can purchase tokens for £1 (cash only) and items are then priced with tokens (e.g. a pie is three tokens).
Tokens are not refundable but they can be exchanged for raffle tickets.
