Cheers! Alsager's ninth beer and gin festival this weekend aims to raise thousands
By Deborah Bowyer 30th Jun 2025
It's three-day Alsager Beer and Gin Festival this weekend which is set to attract record crowds and raised a bumper amount for local charities.
Every year, Alsager Cricket Club in Fairview Avenue holds a three-day fundraising festival and this year it took place from tomorrow (26 June) until Sunday (28 June).
Scorching temperatures and a packed programme are guaranteed to attract the crowds to what is the ninth festival. Last year's raised a bumper £6,000.
Alan Stancliffe, chairman of Alsager Cricket Club said: "It was an amazing weekend with huge crowds and tremendous support from our army of volunteers who enable us to run the bars on the three days.
"The public support was again amazing and all enjoyed the singing and music of Hayley , Danny Brab and DJ Mav X.
"Thanks also to our 22 sponsors whose generosity is fantastic - also thanks to Alsager scouts who run the barbeque, Wildfire Pizza and a group of pupils from Alsager School who ran stalls to help them fund their charity trip to Tanzania.
"The first team also won both games in front of crowds of nearly 2,000 people.
In total, the festivals have raised more than £25,000 for local Alsager charities and associations since the event was launched nine years ago.
