A three-day music and beer festival is returning to a village outside Preston during the late May Bank Holiday weekend.

G-Festival is now into its fourth year and takes place on the Gregson Lane playing fields in Hoghton.

Money raised from the festival goes towards a new community centre for Hoghton and maintaining community spaces in gregson Lane.

More than 35 real ales are on offer during the festival as well as 15 gins.

Breweries and distilleries represented include Crankshaft Brewery, Three Bs Brewery, Bowland Brewery, Brindle Distillery and the Ribble Valley Gin Company.

Live music is planned with 17 acts performing during the weekend.

Chorley-based Kevin Simm is headlining the Friday night and on Sunday Hoghton’s own Emily Clark, playing Dusty Springfield in a nationwide tour, headlines.

G-Festival organiser Jacqui Gibson said: “We’re delighted G-Festival is returning for the fourth year, it just gets better each year. We’ve had amazing support and sponsorship pledged from local businesses.

“The event is predominately volunteer led, with many residents giving up time to work at the event. G-Festival wouldn’t be possible without the generosity of the local community, and large numbers of people attending – all helping towards our charitable cause.”
