Rail Ale Festival
26th - 28th July 2024
**Over 60 Real Ales & 20 Ciders**
Join us at this years festival, held in co-operation with CAMRA (Hinckley & Bosworth Branch) in the Goods Shed and marquee at Market Bosworth Railway Station.
There will be entertainment outside each day, with steam traction engines (both full size, and miniature) demonstrating the road transport of yesteryear.
Meanwhile, on the rails, there will be trains operating throughout the weekend.
In the evening, why not enjoy your pint while listening to our live entertainment, provided by Dr Busker (Fri & Sat nights only).
