Enjoy bank holiday beer and music in Lincoln

Both Lincoln Beer Festival and WonderGround got the bank holiday off to a flying start in Lincoln.

Thursday marked the first day for both events and there’s plenty of time to join in their fun.

The 44th Lincoln Beer Festival will keep lovers of ale, cider and perry happy on Friday and Saturday, at Southside.

The venue saw a 19 per cent increase in attendance when it hosted the beer festival for the first time last year and it is aiming to build on that success with music from 6pm on both remaining night featuring:

Friday

• 6pm – Dionne Sturdy-Clow
• 7pm – Indi
• 8pm – Rhys Turner
• 9pm – Dave Mallet
• 9:30pm – Back To Mono DJs

Saturday

• 6pm Angela Knight
  7pm Archie Laws-Chapman
  8pm Rhys Turner & TJR B2B (DJs)

Organised by the Lincoln branch of the Campaign for Real Ale, the event attracts around 2,000 people and celebrates the revival of British brewing and the diversity of the beers produced across the country with a focus on local breweries – see https://lincoln.camra.org.uk/lincoln-beer-festival/.

WonderGround runs until May 27 is celebrating Lincolns unsung creative heroes with a series of events that includes music, art exhibitions, workshops, spoken word, parkour and a silent boogie. 

One of the highlights is music in City Square on Friday and Saturday in collaboration with The Guild Sessions and county grassroots promoters The Gas Station.
