Corfu Beer Festival in 2014

[dimitris]

The dates of the next Corfu Beer and Gastronomy Festival have been announced last night after a small meeting of it's contributors.
This year's theme will be CORFU MEETS UK!!  from Wednesday 8th  until Sunday 12th  October 2014.
 It will offer again the opportunity for two different cultures to meet and travel in each other's history. Visitors will get to know the culture, hospitality and gastronomy of Corfu through the exhibition of local products, through presentations of local recipes by local cooks and through educational seminars. This way our visitors will become ambassadors of the real Corfu!!!  
Some British Brewers will be invited in order to produce  their beers directly in our Corfu microbrewery  that will be offered during the festival among the local beers and other products.

After the great success of the fist attempt in 2013 where Corfu Met Bavaria,  we are all looking forward to next one hoping that Corfu Meets UK will be even Better!!

See you in 2014!!

Excellent news hot on the heels of a very successful first ever Corfu Beer and Gastronomy Festival.

With just under a years notice would-be visitors have plenty of time to make travel arrangements.  I'll do all that I can to help publicize this event.

So pleased the first one was a great success, just a shame we couldn't stop for longer, at least with the photo's we can not only see it but almost feel the atmosphere.
 Im sure that 2014 will be as good and hope very much that Pete and I shell be with you all in Arillas. Love Viv xx

Dimitris I've just had a thought...

The German sausage souvlaki were rather tasty - I wonder how haggis souvlaki would go down (have to catch the beasties first )

[Erja]

Looks like fun and I am most definitely considering of attending this festival next October. Now we'll just have wait for the flights to come out

[Paul & Denise]

TC has some great deals for the Rainbow at the moment, Jimmy is working with them to try and fill up for October, staying open right to the end of the month. With the beer festival confirmed this is good news for Arillas but hurry I'm sure he will fill up fast.

[Eggy]

A full Rainbow, with 50% of the guests throwing darts, is a good enough deal for me!

As it's a Corfu/UK trend next year will the festival also have a dartboard?.
Wili we be able to see it - after a few bevvies?

Quote from Eileen " I wonder how haggis souvlaki would go down"

It should go down quite well Eileen with one of your well known Scottish Ales  (I always thought it was from Wales )

Damn - Photobucket ruined that so I have tried Imageshack

[Val n Bill]

Welsh choirs. Scottish pipers. Traditional Morrismen and Morris dancing (girls). Irish dancing. Jazz bands. Pop bands. Brass bands. Body Poppers. Street Dancers.
And then there so many traditional breweries and micro breweries that a UK/Corfu festival with lots of Greek food treats....plus, haggis, sausages, Yorkshire pudding, Welsh cakes, Lancashire Hotpot, and every other tasty regional food that you could think of will be WONDERFUL.......

But we can't be there because it's term time

Ha ha Terry! The technical glitch didn't spoil the laugh for me. I would love a haggis souvlaki with a glass of that.....

And like Val and Bill, Jen and I will almost certainly miss it because of term time, then arrive in Arillas afterwards. Such a shame.

Do kids do Morris Dancing?

I only ask as it's a long time since I've seen a "Morris Minor"
