We use token cards for the purchase of beer instead of cash at the bar. Cards cost £10 each and can be purchased at the main entrance desk or at the Products Stall/Hub in the Main Hall. Cash or contactless machines will be available for payments. Full refunds will be given on any unused portions of the token cards. Alternatively, if desired, unused amounts may be donated at the end of your visit to our festival charity, Return To Life.

The Main Entrance to the festival is at the Walker Hall end of the building as it has a disabled access ramp and is more sheltered. The revised Festival Layout is shown here: www.ayrshirebeerfestival.co.uk/festival-layout/
