Norwich Beer Festival logo competition launched

The annual competition has been launched by CAMRA (The Campaign for Real Ale) to find the logo for the 42nd Norwich Beer Festival, taking place from Monday 21st October until Saturday 26th October 2019.

The competition has commenced early again this year as the Norwich & Norfolk branch will be hosting the Great British Beer Festival Winter (Tuesday 19th February until Saturday 23rd February 2019).  This will be the last time the branch host this event, as it moves to a different part of the country next year.  Visit winter.gbbf.org.uk for more information.

The deadline for 42nd Norwich Beer Festival logo entries is 9pm Monday 18th February 2019 and Norwich & Norfolk CAMRA are looking for innovative designs depicting a dragon of some form.

Craig Harmer, Festival Organiser, said: “Last year's entries included a wide variety of designs and styles, with many high quality logos.  We had 38 entries, and we're expecting more this year”.

As always, the essential element is that a dragon must be included within the design, although abstract is acceptable.  Also, a maximum of five solid colours (four is preferable) can be used, including any black or white parts of the design.

Entrants are asked to specify "Adult" or "Under-18" and include their name, contact details and age (if under-18) within the email.  Visit www.camra.org.uk/privacypolicy for our privacy policy.

Judging will by organised by the festival organisers and the winner will receive £100 along with a selection of merchandise featuring their logo at the festival.  There will be two runner-up prizes of complementary festival tickets, and the best under-18 entrant will receive a voucher.

All entries must be in a standard image format (JPEG, TIFF, PNG, GIF, BMP, or PDF).  Vector files are welcome as long as a standard image format is included.  Hand drawn entries are acceptable, but must be scanned or photographed. Multiple entries are also acceptable.

All entries (and queries) must be emailed to logo@norwichbeerfestival.org.uk and be received before 9pm Monday 18th February 2019.  All email entries will be acknowledged.

The logo of the winner will be depicted on the festival glass, programme, and other merchandise.

All entries will become the property of the Norwich & Norfolk branch of the Campaign for Real Ale and may be used for display and publicity purposes.
