Post to: Nottingham CAMRA Cider Saunter, 86 Cator Lane, Beeston, Nottingham, NG9 4BB
The draw for the prize flight will take place at the September branch meeting at The Embankment on Thursday 25th.
The Cider Saunter runs from Friday 1st August – Sunday 31st August 2025 and there are 25 pubs taking part across the whole of the branch area. All of the pubs will be stocking a range of draught real cider and perry which will include at least one offering from our local East Midlands producers.
To enter the Cider Saunter, visit one of the pubs on the list and order a half pint (or more!) of draught real cider or perry. Tell the staff you’re on the Cider Saunter and ask for a sticker for that pub. Stick it on your entry form and fill in the other details. Visit at least 10 pubs to qualify for a free pint of cider or perry (or even beer) at The 2025 Robin Hood Beer & Cider Festival in October. Visiting 18 pubs will get you the chance to win a very special prize (see below).
Look out for pubs which may not be included on the Saunter but still have East Midlands cider on sale. These can be recorded on your entry leaflet as lucky dip entries and count towards your totals.
Your chance to win a pleasure flight!
If you visit 18 pubs from the cider saunter (including lucky dips) and send in your entry form, you will be included in a prize draw. One lucky winner will have the opportunity of a free one hour pleasure flight around the Nottingham area in a light aircraft.
See the bottom of this page for more details.

Pleasure Flight Details
The prize flight on offer is a one hour pleasure flight for two people. Please be aware that due to the closure of Tollerton airfield, the flight will now operate from Tatenhill airfield, just west of Burton-on-Trent. You will be airborne for around 45 minutes and will have the chance to see the local sights, perhaps flying over your house.
This will be arranged by your Branch Cider Officer and must be for a time and date mutually convenient for the pilot and the winner. Weekend slots can be difficult to obtain at short notice – midweek is far easier.
A certain amount of mobility is required as you will need to climb onto the wing to access the door.
Please be aware that in the event of bad weather or aircraft unavailability your flight may need to be cancelled on the day and rescheduled.
Please note – this is a pleasure flight, not a ‘trial lesson’. Your pilot is not an instructor and you will not be able to take control of the aircraft.
The prize is the flight as advertised – there is no cash or other alternative.
