Not one, not two, but three sets for your enjoyment!Come join us Saturday afternoon for three live sets starting approx. 12.30pm at the 34th Bent & Bongs Beer Bash.
The ‘Bent n Bongs Beer Bash’ is a beer festival in nearby Atherton, organised by the Bent n Bongs Charitable Trust, in association with Wigan CAMRA.
Too many, it’s considered to be the ‘sister’ festival to the Wigan CAMRA Beer Festival – many CAMRA volunteers work both festivals. Brian Gleave, a Wigan CAMRA Branch member, is a main organiser of both festivals.
The Bent n Bongs Charitable Trust is a charitable organisation that undertakes the mission of raising money for charities and other good causes, primarily aiming to target the funds raised into the local area.
The Bent n Bongs Beer Festival takes place each February at the Roller Rink in Atherton. Atherton is part of the Metropolitan Borough of Wigan, but is in the South East Lancashire CAMRA Branch area.
The festival serves the neighbouring towns of Atherton and Tyldesley. People from Atherton are known locally as ‘bents’ and people from Tyldesley are known locally as ‘bongs’. Hence the rather unusual name of the festival.
