Before the Festival heads to Manchester, it will stop at Cheltenham and Glasgow. Following Manchester, it will visit locations including Swansea, London, Northampton and Sheffield.

Tickets for timed sessions on September 8 and 9 are now on sale here and start at £12.50. Each ticket included a stainless steel cup, stainless steel straw, Gin & Rum guide, satchel, snack and a drink on departure.
