Over 4,000 Attendees Scanned: Guildford Beer Festival Taps into Comus Ticketing Power

The Large Tent at the Guildford Beer Festival 2025

The 15th annual Guildford Beer Festival once again transformed the picturesque grounds of Guildford Cricket Club into a vibrant hub for beer and cider enthusiasts on Friday, September 19, and Saturday, September 20, 2025.

Beyond the perfect pints and live music, the event marked a significant operational success: over 4,000 tickets were sold and seamlessly scanned into the three separate sessions held over the weekend.

Serving Up Seamless Entry

Comus.io was proud to provide the exclusive ticketing and entry management solution for the multi-session event. The platform’s robust scanning capabilities were put to the test, managing high volumes of traffic across both the Friday evening and Saturday sessions.

Managing three distinct sessions across two days, each with hundreds of people arriving simultaneously, requires a rock-solid system. Our ability to quickly validate and scan every one of those 4,000+ tickets ensured minimal queuing and helped attendees get straight to enjoying the fantastic array of local brews.

Raising a Glass for Guildford Cricket Club

Held opposite the Guildford Pavilion, the Beer Festival is a crucial annual fundraiser, with all proceeds supporting the non-profit Guildford Cricket Club. The strong attendance and smooth logistics are key to maximising the funds raised for the club’s development programs.

The Comus.io team congratulates the Guildford Beer Festival organisers on another successful, well-executed event and looks forward to supporting their ongoing efforts to raise funds for local sport.
