We are raising a glass to summer with the return of our annual August Bank Holiday Beer & Music Festival, taking place from Thurs 21st - Mon 25th August 2025!
Five days of exceptional live music, a hand-picked selection of cask beers,perry and ciders, tasty food and the warm, vibrant atmosphere that you can expect at the Prince Albert…
Festival-goers can look forward to over twenty specially chosen beers served from the cask, celebrating some of the country’s finest breweries including from North Wales Purple Moose, Brew York, Thornbridge with three different versions of the festival favourite Jaipur. “Jaipur is the only beer that ALWAYS features in our beer fest menu. It’s one of Miles' favourites, and as it’s his birthday over the weekend …and did you know it’s Prince Alberts the same day!” says Landlady Lotte Lyster Connolly who runs the pub with her husband Miles and their family. This year's music line-up of live bands includes psychedelic indierock to music straight from the steppes of Mongolia. There is a Shanty night, Celtic afternoon session, live human jukebox that wowed the crowds at the Avalon field at Glastonbury, and DJ sets spanning global grooves, tropical vibes, jazz and reggae with both well-loved local vinyl spinners and special guests. Food will also be served throughout the festival with burgers from locally reared cows, as well as Moving Mountain vegan burgers and their popular pizza with vegan and GF options.
Every day of the festival is free entry and it all starts at 6pm on Thursday through to 7pm on Monday night. “Our Bank Holiday Beer Festival weekends are some of our favourite times of the year. We get to showcase beers that we normally can’t sell in the pub due to our beer tie. And after such a fabulous summer we can’t wait to throw open the doors for a proper celebration. Wehave some exciting new additions in our ‘secret garden’ that you must check out. Whether you’re here for the music, the beer, or just the company, you’re guaranteed a great time…” - Miles Connolly
