The popular Neath Real Ale and Cider Festival returns this year after a two-year Covid-fuelled hiatus. The event, the seventh to take place in the town, is being held on July 22 and 23 and will see hundreds of local people and visitors sample a wide range of real ales and ciders while catching up with friends and loved ones and enjoying live music from talented local musicians.
Pubs and restaurants are set to host "special guest ales" throughout the event with an "ale trail" available for anyone who wishes to collect stamps for trying different drinks at different venues. There's also set to be family entertainment on the evening of July 23 in Angel Square.
It's just £5 per ticket – with tickets covering entry for both Friday, July 22, and Saturday, July 23 – and the festival will run from 12pm to 11pm each day.
