Take ferries to Belgium for Beerfest

People who admit to having a soft spot for a cold beer will be able to catch ferries to Belgium in October to attend a festival celebrating the beverage.

The Diksmuide Beerfest will be held in the town in north-west Belgium on October 17th and 24th this year.

Ferries to Ostend, the closest port to Diksmuide, are provided by TransEuropa Ferries from Ramsgate, while Norfolkline operates a Dover to Dunkerque ferry service that offers easy access to Belgium.

More than 130 breweries take part in Beerfest, serving up over 400 different varieties of beer from a large hall on the town's main market square.

An oom-pah band will provide live musical entertainment and there will be plenty of food served up to accompany the drinks.

The festival will run from 18:30 to 23:30 on each day and charges only €3 (£2.60) for entry.

P&O Ferries also provides access to Belgium with its Hull to Zeebrugge ferry route, while Norfolkline offers ferries to Zeebrugge from Rosyth in Scotland.
