We have an obligation to make sure that the event is not overcrowded on the Saturday night therefore we have opted for a price rise. The sessions are longer than you get at most Camra beer festivals.

Most of our visitors by a day ticket which includes the trains and entry to the beer festival. Discounts are available for concessions, members etc as usual.

We are making tokens available at Keighley to help people avoid a queue at Oxenhope.

We give people the option of bringing their own glass if they wish (how many beer festivals do that!) so that they don't have to queue for them either

If anyone works a few hours behind the bar we'll find them a concessionary ticket so they won't have to pay.

The fact that Taylors is available all over Keighley is not relevant - most visitors aren't from Keighley!

The only other option that we could see was to make the Saturday all ticket and we did not wish to do that.
