"Last year’s festival was a great success with hundreds of people enjoying themselves at our historic fort, and this year promises to be even better with more top-class food and drink, and the bonus of an extra afternoon session too.

Beers will be on offer from 15 of the area’s best craft breweries, including a debut for the 3AM Brewery in Newhaven.
