Phoenix Beer Festival 2023
Welcome to our annual beer festival at The Phoenix Theatre!
We celebrate the craft of brewers and their delicious creations! Join us for a fun-filled day of beer tasting, food, and live entertainment.
We have gathered some of the best IPAs, stouts and ales, and a couple of ciders, so there will be something for everyone to enjoy. In addition to beer, we will have some brilliant food on offer, offering some tasty bites to complement your drinks. You can also groove to the tunes of live music at two different stages.
Tickets for the festival are available online or at the door, if any are left. We encourage you to bring your friends and family to enjoy a great day out while supporting breweries and businesses in our community.
So come down to our beer festival and experience the flavours and culture of brewing! We can't wait to see you there
Performers
Micky Kemp
A passionate live performer. Micky joins us with a stripped down version of his long standing band for some brilliant originals and classic covers.
Micky Kemp was a late comer to the music scene but wasted no time making a name for himself on both the local music scene and further afield. His first album was released and received widespread acclaim and established him as a talented songwriter.
In 2022 Micky released two albums. The acclaimed “Gloryland” a hard hitting look at the UK and it’s ongoing highs and lows, and the stunning “Out Of The Darkness” a five star album packed with songs inspired by classic American sounds.
The Kings Pond Shantymen
Kings Pond Shantymen perform shanties and other seafaring songs, interspersed with a few drinking songs and odd ditties. They aim for an authentic shanty style - unaccompanied male voices singing in harmony - on a good day.
They like to just sing and drink a pint or two of beer, but not at the same time as it tends to waste the beer.
The Kernel Panics
The Kernel Panics from Fleet in Hampshire play covers in the genre of garage blues rock. With a toe tapping energetic swagger and swing, they play down-and-dirty grooves that get you movin'.
Solace In Sound
Solace In Sound brings you fresh music from the sunny south coast of Devon.
He will be performing an acoustic set of original songs from his forthcoming debut album “Welcome To The Wood Lounge”. He will be accompanied by the talented pianist Baiba Singer.
His music is described as ambient & emotive, so why don’t you grab a chair and a pint and enjoy!
