Brogdale Cider Festival 2023: Savour the summer while you sample over 40 ciders, locally produced. Brogdale rolls up the barn doors to local producers of artisan and specialist cider. Exclusive barrels of scrumptious cider and Perry will be racked and ready for visitors to sample. A great experience for all the family with ciders usually only stocked in selected outlets!
Entertainment will include live music, food and crafts from a wealth of Kent talent. And of course there will be cider making demonstrations.
A free shuttle bus will be running from Faversham mainline train station to Brogdale throughout the weekend, allowing visitors easy access from public transport routes.
A great day out, just over an hour from London, in the heart of the Kent countryside.
Taste the finest artisan ciders from small-batch producers based in and around Kent. With over 40 ciders to enjoy during the weekend, sample and taste the day away! Vote for your favourite to win a cider hamper!
