Tinsel Town - Beer, Food & Gift Festival

We love Christmas - so we've created an event to encourage people to come together over a festive drink & bite to eat (with some shopping thrown in for good measure!).

Join us on Friday 9th & Saturday 10th December at the beautiful St Mary's Arts Centre in Sandwich!

Friday evening will feature drinks from us (20+ amazing beer taps, wine, cider, soft drinks) & cocktails created & served by our friend Karl at Cocktail in a Bottle from 5-10pm. Food is offered by Tayberry Foods, & we'll have some festive tunes and some impressive outfits to keep your spirits up!

Saturday daytime (10am - 4pm) offers a relaxed market where you can meet friends & chat over food & drinks, & you'll have the chance to purchase gifts including jewellery, Xmas wreaths, decorations, candles, lanterns, handcrafted wooden items, Xmas eve treats & also cocktails, beer & sparkling wine gifts. Enjoy some tasty Swedish buns courtesy of Bygga Bo, or something from Tayberry Foods. Tea/ also available during the day alongside alcoholic and soft drinks. Whilst the stalls will disappear at 4pm, we'll bring out more chairs for you to continue to enjoy the festive cheer (last orders 10pm). DDC are offering free parking in their car parks on Saturday 10th December!

We're delighted to have a talented face painter to please children & adults alike, & we welcome Xmas jumpers in all colours, shapes & sizes!

The bar will be open throughout & alongside some truly outstanding beer, local wine & cider, Cocktail in a Bottle are serving up some festive specials (think mulled negroni & more!).

Plenty of tables to sit & chat, & even a few family games to play. Feel free to bring your own if you have a favourite.

Entry is free all day and night, and we'd love to see you there for some festive fun!

Come & join us - bring your friends!
