The blues rides the rails again as the Rail, Ale & Blues Festival returns to Lakeside Station for a weekend of outstanding live music, traditional real ales and heritage railway journeys.
The award-winning Signal Box Inn will be serving a carefully selected range of real ales throughout the weekend, with an additional bar available inside the Luggage Shed Lounge. Meanwhile, a packed programme of live blues will take to the Lakeside stage, curated by Sheffield’s Honey Bee Blues Club and featuring performers from across the country.
Trains will also be running along the Cleethorpes coastline throughout the weekend, bringing together three great British traditions: railways, real ale and live blues.
Entry to the festival and live music is completely free, with charges applying for drinks and train journeys. The bars open from 11:00am each day.
