Halesowen Cricket Club Beer Festival Essential Information
We have a packed weekend of entertainment for you but first some essential information –
Carparking
There will be no parking on site during the festival. All parking on site is reserved for cricket activity that will be running alongside the festival. Given the nature of the event we would hope you are leaving the cars at home, but for those designated drivers there is local parking just a short walk away.
Checking In
When you arrive at the gates of the ground you will be directed to entrance to the festival. You will need to present a copy of your tickets for scanning. Then you will be given your cup, wrist bands and programme. We do ask that you wear your wrist band at all times while attending the event.
We will be checking for proof of age as people check in.

Cricket Games
There will be cricket activity on over the weekend but on Saturday in particular we have our 1st XI playing. There will be a cordoned area for the cricket game and we ask that spectators do not enter this area during the game.
Also be aware that during the game we do have a net up in some areas but there is still potential for cricket balls to enter the crowd. Please remain vigilant at all times.
When the game has come to an end we will remove the barrier.
