Trawden Beer Festival was a barrel of laughs

Trawden’s first ever beer and music festival proved a huge hit with fans in Pendle and beyond, as organisers put on a show stopping event for well over 900 people which could raise in the region of £10,000.

“We’re absolutely overwhelmed by the positive response and success of the weekend," said Peter Catlow, rotarian and director of cost management at one of the sponsor firms, Businesswise Solutions. "The event proved hugely popular, and all three days were packed with people from in and around the local area, I met people from Leeds, London and Stockholm.

Helen Walker from Colne attended the festival, she said: “It was a fantastic weekend, big thanks to the huge team of volunteers that served us well all weekend; can't wait for next year!”
