GUILDFORD CRICKET CLUB
Guildford Beer Festival
The Guildford Beer Festival is hosted and run by Guildford Cricket Club, one of the largest, most successful cricket clubs in Surrey. We are founder members of the Surrey Championship League and our 1st XI play in the First Division.
On a Saturday we field three men’s Xls whilst on a Sunday our Academy (U-21) team play in the Surrey Trust League. Our Women’s first team are in the Championship division of the Southern League and we also run an U15 Girls’ team. In addition, we have Men’s and Women’s teams in the T20 Surrey Slam competition. We also run a vast programme of junior cricket, ages 7-17, along with an U19 team.

VOLUNTEERING
Charley Teale, newly appointed Chair of the GBF Organising Committee, says:
“Come and join the team delivering this fantastic event! We rely on volunteers and we really look after those who help us – fantastic camaraderie and great fun. All our staff receive training, a GBF T-shirt and tokens for a meal and drinks. There are other roles that do not require serving in the bars.”
We are also interested in hearing from local charities and voluntary groups. Bring a team to work for us at the GBF and we will make a generous donation to your organisation.

The GBF is well-known for the quality of its live music offering. At the GBF in July 2023, there were performances by nine local bands and artists, which were enthusiastically received in the Andertons Music Tent.
Tom Worrall is the GBF’s Music Director, and he is interested in hearing from up-and-coming local bands and acts. You are welcome to contact Tom at music@guildfordbeerfestival.co.uk.
