Brixton Windmill’s Beer & Bread Festival back after two years’ absence Bank Holiday Monday 2nd May 1-5pm in Windmill Gardens There have been so many gaps and absences in the last years. But one of the most notable must be the Beer & Bread Festival, a May highlight for Brixton. This year our annual celebration of local craft breweries and artisan bakeries promises to be better than ever. Our festival is organised in partnership with Brixton Brewery who are joined by the Canopy Beer Co., London Beer Lab and Bullfinch Brewery. Artisan bakeries are represented by BreadBread, Moji Coker and more. We are also grateful for the support of Brixton’s Business Improvement District who are providing stewards for the event. After two years of pandemic lockdown, local Morris Dancers, the Tatterjacks, will once again welcome in the month of May in traditional style. Live music from the festival stage comes from local bands Casino Moon, 3HIRD EYE, and Los Domingos will once again get the audience up on their feet dancing to their salsa vibes. Performing for the first time at a Windmill event are all-girl capella singers the Electric Belles. Throughout the afternoon there will be creative craft fun for children with KidsKreate as well as organised games in the family and children’s area. At the Windmill our volunteer millers will be showing visitors how they mill Brixton’s renowned wholemeal flour. Hot Indian street food can be bought from Gully’s van and the Brixton Windmill Centre pop-up café will be selling hot and cold drinks as well as ice cream and snacks. Ashby’s grocery store stall will be stocked with seasonal fresh fruit, Brixton honey and and other local produce. Our own Brixton Windmill shop will be open selling a wide range of colourful and beautifully-designed windmill products. Make sure you’ve put the event in your diary – Brixton Windmill Beer & Bread Festival, Bank Holiday Monday, May 2nd 1-5pm – it’s going to be a great afternoon so spread the word! |
