Beer Festival
East Kent Railway Summer Beer Festival 2025
Sat 23 - Mon 25 August 2025
Not long now until our popular annual Beer & Cider Festival.
Travel from Shepherdswell on our "Pacer" 142036 to Eythorne Station and visit "The Rusty Buffer" to sample this year's excellent selection of Beer & Cider.
Of course there will be hot and cold food at both ends of the line as well as the usual EKR attractions, including miniature railways at Shepherdswell.
A frequent service will be in operation to allow plenty of time at Eythorne to try out the beverages and relax on a lazy bank holiday weekend.
