- Beer Festival Update

Having discounted the Angel Hotel in Westgate Street as a venue, we are now considering Portland House in Bute Street, Cardiff Bay. However, even if this is found to be suitable, there is no longer time to organise a festival there this year.
- CAMRA Branch Boundaries
Tuesday 27 August 2024
CAMRA’s National Executive has decreed that all branch boundaries be brought into alignment with local authority boundaries and that regional boundaries be aligned with county boundaries.

Fortunately, Cardiff Branch is unaffected as our boundary already coincides with the Cardiff local authority boundary
