Good morning from my inbox where I have 14 (fourteen) pitches I would like to commission, but I don't have the budget to fund any of them. I keep banging on about this, but @pelliclemag.com needs more subscribers if it is to continue. Please spread the word.

Last night after our wash up meeting, we presented our Brewed in Wigan Pale Beer of the Festival award to Becca and Jonny of Wigan Brewhouse for their beer Red Light Spells Danger, and it was on fine form at their brewery tap. Well worth visiting 😍

For those of you who love our vintage festival bus service, there is another vintage bus and beer event on the near horizon, and it is a great day out. Highly recommended. Get the train to Burscough or Parbold and join in.

We found a D-Day commemoration pin badge at the beer festival. If it's yours we can arrange to return it. Thanks

Well, that was the 37th Wigan Beer Festival that was. Thank you to everyone who came, to everyone who wanted to be there but couldn't, to all our staff, every one a volunteer, to our sponsors and the venue, our stallholders and entertainers. We look forward to seeing you all next year.

Looking great this afternoon, and this was just after most of the Latics fans had left. Thank you everyone and hope everyone is having a great time.

It has been remiss of us not to mention to date that we have Just the Cheese back with us, so if you like cheese and biscuits with your beer, cider or gin you know where to go, and you take some home with you too. Lovely

Have a great day Keith, and everyone else who is joining him
I’m on my way to @wiganbeerfest.bsky.social for a second day of Bacchanalian decadence and indescribable excess

Don't forget. It's free entry for season ticket holders for the Tics and the Warriors today
Calling all season tickets of our two home clubs. Next Saturday 1st March it is free entry to season ticket holders. And with the Tics kicking off at home at 3pm, and the Warriors playing later at 9.30pm, what better way to wet the whistle. We can't wait 😍

We have 3 beers on from Problem Child Brewing and what fine beers they are. Miss Chief is a very cloudy IPA with 60 litres of strawberry puree in the brew. Darth Vegas is a very drinkable slightly sweet stout and Big Girls Blouse is an old floral favourite. All highly recommended. #37thWBF2025
