- Ipswich Beer Festival 2025 - Volunteers Needed
Monday 23 December 2024
Regarding a possible Ipswich Beer Festival 2025, we have a small team who have been working towards getting this up and running. Unfortunately due to other commitments, Briarbank will not be able to support the festival if we are to have one, so this is a call for volunteers to help with organising the festival (should we go ahead volunteers will also be required to work at it). We will not be able to do it without extra help, so if you can help in any way please contact me at ku.gro.armac.hciwspi@namriahc ASAP. Help will be needed with things like marketing, advertising, website/ticketing, beer selection & ordering, logistics etc. There are lots of things to do, but if a few more of you would be kind enough to get on board it should only be a few hours a month you need to put aside, and it would be much appreciated. cheers, Gordon
