Hello everyone. It's almost that time of year again, just three weeks to go until this years event. This year we have an even bigger network of routes running more frequently across the Isle of Wight linking real ale establishments. Improvements for this year include six buses an hour Newport to Ventnor, four buses per hour Newport to Cowes via the villages and a new route to Freshwater and Alum Bay. We have just short of 100 vintage vehicles operating in service from our bus stations at Newport Quay and Ryde Depot. Feel free to ask any questions on this thread as we continue the huge task planning the event. Who's coming this year?
A list of buses operating here, with a few last minute additions still to add : http://iwbeerandbuses.co.uk/buses.php
You can buy your programme online. The programme give you free travel on the Isle of Wight Steam railway between Wootton and Havenstreet, discounted Wightlink & Southern Vectis fares and money off food and drink at the pubs. A further supplement will be available the week before the event which will tell you exactly which bus is operating each journey http://iwbeerandbuses.co.uk/programme.php
