Kidderminster Beer & Cider Festival

In November 2023, Wyre Forest CAMRA will again be hosting this popular event but not at the Kidderminster Town Hall which will be closed for refurbishment. Instead we will be hosting the festival at the Kidderminster Harriers Supporters and Social Club on the 9th-11th November 2023 and we hope to see you and your friends then!
