BB Brewfest

20/06/2024

Hey everyone, long time no post!

Well, after the amazing success of last year's very first Brewfest charity event, we've been inundated with requests to hold another one this year. We are delighted that everyone had such a great night and of course together we raised £2500 for the North Devon Hospice to boot so, all in all, a great success!

However, since last year, the top honcho here at Brewfest HQ has suffered quite serious health problems and, as a result, will need a lot more help with the planning and ex*****on if we are to pull this off a second time without him keeling over.

So, if you think you can help with fundraising ideas, sourcing music and bands/DJ, marketing, advertising & general event duties then please DM us asap and we'll chat about how you can help.

This year's charity has yet to be decided but we will report back as and when decided when we can get a great team together.

Hey! Due to popular demand we're starting to plan the next Brewfest!

Stay tuned for more info!

Ok, the time has come when we can finally reveal all!!

Drum roll....

Thanks to the generosity of our wonderful village, visitors from outside, our sponsors & the bands, we have raised a healthy £2500 for the North Devon Hospice! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!

Here's a few pics we managed to get on the night. We have vids too but they're too big to upload so, until we can work out how to edit them, they'll have to stay where they are sadly.

If anyone has any pics they'd like to share please do send them over & we'll add them.

OMG is all we can say! It couldn't have gone any better! Awesome evening! A huge thank you to everyone who came to support us in our fundraising event for the hospice. Everything went smoothly, no delays, no hiccups - perfect!

Once we've counted up the pennies we'll report the final takings.

It's show time so we thought we'd answer all those last minute questions we're being asked...

We can take cash or card tonight. There are 2 desks by the hall door, one for each method of payment (clearly marked). Food & drink tokens are to be purchased here. There will be NO facility to take payments on the food counter or bar, only the tokens can be used.

Doors will open at 5pm. The Appledore Band is opening at 5:30, followed by The Littleham Howlers, then part 1 of the auction, followed by Back In The Room, part 2 of the auction then Pete G Party Vibe band until finish at 11pm.

ALL proceeds are going to support the wonderful work the North Devon Hospice provides so please give generously but, just as important, have a fantastic night with us!!! 🎵🎸🎹🍻🌭

We are so excited to have received a batch of simply stunning candles from Ember Candles & Decor for our auction! 😁

These are truly beautiful - classy, sophisticated & smelling gorgeous!! Someone is going to be very lucky to get these for sure!

We think we've teased you enough so here are the full details of what to expect at Brewfest on 30th September 😁

As we are limited to numbers you really need to get tickets in advance to avoid disappointment. All you need to do is message from here, email or WhatsApp/message/phone us. Details are on the poster.

This is going to be a great night & we hope to raise lots of money for the North Devon Hospice, a very worthy cause.

Thank you for your support! 😘

Back In The Room 🥰

The BB Brewfest organisers felt it would be rude not to support 2 of our acts gigging this weekend so we forced ourselves to go out & have some fun 😉

They were both so good that we thought we'd give you a little taster of what to expect on the 30th. Please excuse wobbly filming - we just cant stand still when theyre playing! We are excited to welcome Pete G Party Vibe band & Back In The Room! 💃🕺

Don't forget we also have the Appledore Band & The Littleham Howlers, we just didn't see them this weekend!
