Can you tell us the dates for the 2012 Letchworth Beer festival, please. We’re putting together our 2012 programme and, assuming you’d like us to be present, we’d like to include the date in our programme. Many Thanks! Theo, Bagman, Letchworth Morris
Hi Theo,
Unfortunately I do not believe we have a 2012 date for Letchworth finalised yet. We’re losing the Plinston Hall venue this year and investigating alternatives.
I’ll email you…
Ay news on a 2013 Letchworth festival?
There cannot be a 2013 Letchworth fest unfortunately. The re-schedule of the Hitchin festival does not give us enough time. (We need at least 6 months to get a fest off the ground. Used to be Hitchin:March/Letchworth:September. With Hitchin now seeming to be a “summer festival” for the forseeable future we just don’t have the resources (people) to manage both. (While the Green House worked OK, it was pretty cold in September – if pushed into winter it would be a freezer.)

Can you add the dates for Hitchin festival please: 7th to 9th June
On the case, Tracey – it’s mentioned in the SBF report too!
