Thank You
Thank you to everyone who supported this year’s festival and made it a huge success – over 2300 people passed through the doors. We’ve added in a large selection of photos here: www.ayrshirebeerfestival.co.uk/photos-2026-festival
We’re also delighted to announce that thanks to your generosity our festival charity, The Fishermen’s Mission, raised a total of £1300 at the festival, including £1,103 purely from donations contributed from the beer token cards. A presentation to Louise Liddell from The Fishermen’s Mission took place at the festival volunteers’ social held at Ardrossan Rugby Club on Saturday 24 October. Louise is pictured receiving a cheque from Festival Organiser Matt Miller and Festival Treasurer Kenny Gillies.
In addition, at the volunteers’ social we were also delighted to present Ayrshire Riviera Cider with their certificate for winning the Cider/Perry of the Festival Award with their Verry Perry. Pictured is Allan Thomas receiving the award from Stuart McMahon.Volunteers needed
