Wood's launch festival bash

South Shropshire's Wood Brewery is to throw open its doors for 'Wood's Fest - Bash at the Brewery' in Wistanstow, near Church Stretton.

The outdoor event (on Saturday August 24) promises eight hours of live music from local artists including Black Bear Kiss, The Breakfast Club 80s & 90s tribute band, Hot Rox, Andrew Pearce, X Factor’s Georgia Burgess and Amy Goodall as Ariana Grande.

Toby Siveter, events manager, said: “Wood’s Fest will be a fantastic event for South Shropshire. As well as serving up great Shropshire beers, there will be live music, street food, giant inflatables and lots of fun activities."

The Wood Brewery is located next to The Plough Inn - Wood's flagship pub which opened in 1774 and acts as the brewery tap.  It went through a large refurbishment last year and is now being run by a new management team.

The festival will open at 12:30pm and close at 11:30pm. Tickets are £12 on the day, or £10 in advance from The Plough Inn or via Eventbrite with a booking fee. Tickets for under 18s are free.
