Thirsty people will be able to enjoy a refreshment or two at the Paisley Food and Drink Festival.

Organisers of the event have teamed up to host a Renfrewshire CAMRA Beer Tent.

The festival , which takes place at the end of April, will showcase more than 40 top food and drink traders from across Scotland, a demonstration kitchen with celebrity chefs and live entertainment in the surroundings of Paisley Abbey .

For the past five years, the festival has been staged alongside Renfrewshire Campaign for Real Ale’s annual Beer Festival in Paisley Town Hall.

But the venue is currently undergoing a £22million refurbishment, and organisers of both events have now worked together to host a beer tent for visitors to enjoy at the two-day event.

Karen Moore of Renfrewshire CAMRA said: “We’re thrilled to be working with Renfrewshire Council to host a Renfrewshire CAMRA Beer Tent at this year’s Paisley Food and Drink Festival.

“The marquee will have something for all tastes with a wide selection of cask conditioned ales, craft beers, international bottles and much more.

“With its handy location on Bridge Street, visitors can have a drink in the beer tent and wander out to the main festival area to enjoy the range of street food, live music and entertainment in store.

“I can’t wait to see lots of familiar faces at the Paisley Food and Drink Festival.

“There’s so much for everyone to enjoy across the two days in April.”

The tent will have around 70 cask conditioned ales and craft beers available.

There will also be a wide range of bottled beer from around the world and vegan options for those attending the
event.

Paisley Food and Drink Festival takes place on the weekend of April 26 and 27.
