Wakefield Beer Festival returns after seven-year break - in pictures, part two

This is part two of our photo gallery on the return of Wakefield Beer Festival after seven years.

The festival took place from at Wakefield Exchange Friday, October 23, to Sunday, October 25, with four sessions offering visitors the chance to sample a wide selection of beers, ciders and other craft drinks.

More than 100 drinks were featured, with independent and regional breweries among those represented.

The event also included street food and live entertainment, with a different musical act performing during each session.

Friday evening's entertainment was provided by Oompah band The Kase Chiefs, followed by the Chris Berry Band during Saturday afternoon.

Celtic rock band Galeforce performed on Saturday evening, while The Replays brought the festival to a close on Sunday afternoon with rock and pop favourites from the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s.

The festival's return followed a seven-year break and was organised by Wakefield Round Table, HB Clark, The Jolly Boys and Wakefield Council.

Here’s part two of our collection of pictures from the event.
