DRINK lovers will be chinking their pint glasses at the forthcoming Horwich Beer Festival.

The event at the RMI Club, organised by Horwich Rotary Club, will take place from Thursday, September 7 through to Saturday, September 9.

Visitors will be able to choose from 35 ales and the much-requested Prosecco bar is back again.

There will be musical entertainment and hot food served throughout.

Ales are all £2.50 a pint, as are glasses of Prosecco.

Entry to the event is £2 on Thursday and costs £5 for Friday and Saturday.

The event starts at 7pm on Thursday, 5pm on Friday and noon on Saturday, finishing at 11.45 pm on all nights. Profits go towards the rotary club’s chosen charities.
