SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES
Contact the John Godber Centre team on 0115 963 9633 or email to reception@johngodbercentre.co.uk to express an interest in sponsoring the 2026 Festival and supporting its home The John Godber Centre (registered charity 1132272)
The John Godber Centre is pleased to confirm that with the help of Nottingham CAMRA the Hucknall Beer Festival will be back in February. The Hucknall Beer Festival is our largest fundraising event to raise funds to further develop the Centres facilities for the benefit of the Hucknall community.
The John Godber Centre is a registered charity, charity number 1132272, and for over 118 years now has continued the vision of Cannon John Godber to create a hall for the local community to meet and socialise in the centre of the town. The Centre is home to over 60 regular groups, bringing people together through a wide variety of activities such as mental and physical wellbeing sessions, theatre and performing arts, dance, fitness and weight-management classes, as well as social groups for older people, young people, and parents with babies. Alongside this, the Centre is a much-loved community venue, providing a welcoming space for many of life’s important moments, including wedding receptions, birthday and anniversary celebrations, christenings, and funeral receptions.

As a registered charity, our income is generated through room hire, bar sales, and fundraising events, with all proceeds reinvested directly into the Centre. This allows us to continually redevelop and improve our facilities for the benefit of the entire Hucknall community.
In recent years, this investment has included new flooring in our ground floor function space, replacement external fire doors, and upgrades to our IT systems. Prior to the pandemic, we also undertook significant refurbishment works across the building, including redecoration, a new ceiling and lighting in the main hall, new furniture and curtains throughout the venue, the installation of free Wi-Fi, and the refurbishment of both bar areas and the first-floor commercial kitchen.
All of this work forms part of our long-term improvement strategy to ensure the Centre remains a welcoming, modern, and accessible space for future generations. Our most recent improvement, which visitors will notice this year, is the replacement of both the front and rear exit doors.
Our work to continue to keep our community space running is only possible through reinvestment of earnings and the proceeds made from events such as the Hucknall Beer Festival. These fundraising events are more important than ever to us but equally the wish to host a great town event that so many people look forward to and get to enjoy. Each year our popularity grows and we welcome more and more people to the event.
The Hucknall Beer Festival will be a four-day festival attracting Real Ale and Cider drinkers from all over the Nottinghamshire area with some customers travelling in the past from as far as Cornwall and Manchester to visit our event.
