Raise a Glass for Bowgie’s Ale & Cider Festival 2025!
Our beloved Ale & Cider Festival is back for the August Bank Holiday weekend – and this year, it’s bigger, bolder and more spectacular than ever. From Friday 22nd to Monday 25th August, join us at our cliff top pub in Crantock for four days of live music, proper Cornish entertainment and a seriously impressive line-up of local ales, ciders and spirits – all while raising money for Cornwall Hospice Care.
Last summer, our amazing community helped raise over £6,509.11 for the charity. Every drop, sip and singalong helped make that possible – and in 2025, we’re hoping to raise even more. Entry is completely free, and welcome packs will be available to purchase on the door, with all proceeds – plus all bar takings – donated directly to the cause.
Live Music & Good Times
Of course, it wouldn’t be the Bowgie Ale & Cider Festival without a packed programme of live entertainment. Whether you’re dancing under the stars or soaking up the afternoon sun on the terrace, there’ll be music, laughter and community spirit all bank-holiday-weekend long.
