Hat day - Thursday 4 August 2011

'Hat Day' will celebrate its 7th birthday this year on the traditional Thursday (4th August) of the Great British Beer Festival.

Visitors have been encouraged since 2005 to participate in this fun event by bringing a hat along that they have either made or are very fond of.

There have been a number of wonderful hats on parade over the years and our judges will again be walking around Earls Court throughout the day rewarding the best hats with free beer vouchers, with the overall best hat worn by a festival goer winning a bag full of CAMRA goodies.

2011's Individual Winner

Kennedy, all the way from New Zealand, has won Hat of the Day for her fantastic creation and walks away with this year's trophy.

Kennedy won a goody bag which included some CAMRA books, beer vouchers, GBBF T-Shirt and CAMRA pen.

Thanks to everyone who took part.
