The 2025 Phoenix Beer Festival held at the Phoenix Theatre & Arts centre brought ale drinkers from across Hampshire and Surrey.

For the fourth time the Phoenix hosted their beer festival and opening the event was Whitehill Town Mayor Cllr Catherine Clark alongside Director of the Beer Festival Rob Allerston at 4pm on Saturday, September 29.

More than 20 beers were on tap for guests all brewed locally and the event was run completely by volunteers. Live music and entertainment were also on display to keep punters entertained until the evening was wrapped up at 11PM

Whitehill Town Council and EHDC also approved developer Community Infrastructure Levy money for the refurbishment of the centre in order to continue the beer festival and the arts centre’s work.
