Organised by the area’s District Lions, Garforth Beer Festival switched to the new venue last year due to popular demand, having outgrown its former home at the town’s Miners’ Welfare Hall.
Despite the weather - and Leeds United’s defeat at Wembley - the spirits were high as drinkers enjoyed cask ales from Yorkshire breweries, as well as lagers, wine and prosecco.
Local bands entertained the crowds, while food vendors served pizza and German sausages.
Enjoy 13 pictures from the event.
