REVEALED: Dates for 2017 Portsmouth Beer Festival
The popular occasion, put together by the organisers of Southsea’s Victorious Festival, makes its return to Portsmouth Guildhall from Friday, May 12, to Saturday, May 13.
Preparations are well under way for the event, which last year pulled in thousands of punters and showcased more than 100 real ales, as well as a selection of cider and a prosecco bar.

Plus there will be an abundance of street food to satisfy a mix of tastes – and keep everyone fed while they sample the drinks on offer.
Live entertainment across both days will also be arranged for guests.
Tickets are also now on sale to the public.
They cost £11 each, excluding a small booking fee.
With the price you get a souvenir glass, programme and a beer.

Soul sisters The Flikes wowed ticket holders during the day on Saturday, and evening spectators were treated to a performance from tribute act Fleetingwood Mac.
The Thunder Foundation raised cash through giant-sized pub games. The charity supports children in Kenya and has provided for a school offering free education, uniforms, health cover and food for students.
