Gin Festival comes to Crawley

Gin-lovers are in for a treat as the Great British Gin Festival stops off at Crawley next month.

Guests at the festival can experience a modern distillery from the comfort of the festival with drink in hand, thanks to a VR headset and amazing virtual reality distillery.

The event at the Hawth, in Crawley, on Saturday June 30, features an afternoon (1-5pm) and evening session (6-10pm) with tickets costing from £13.50 plus booking fee.

Purchases can be made at EventBrite.com (direct link http://bit.ly//TGBGFCrawley).

The event will also be lined with trade stands from the finest gin producers, with talks about the history of gin, demonstrations of gin production and of course, the all-important cocktail demos!

Live entertainment will help create a special festival vibe, including a magician and a swing band, playing anything from Amy Winehouse to Frank Sinatra.

Bars at The Great British Gin Festival operate a ‘no cash’ system.
