Refreshed RiverFest goes on sale Monday, 16th March 2020

The Angling Trust is delighted to announce that RiverFest 2020 ticket sales will open in alignment with the end of the river season on, Monday 16th March at 10.30am for all Angling Trust members. 

A revamped competition for 2020 will see a brand-new final on the mighty River Trent at Burton Joyce, which we’re sure will provide plenty of rod bending action!  

Following the first round of ticket sales (in which anglers can only buy one ticket) Round 2 (which is an open round where anglers can purchase as many tickets as they wish) will open on Monday 6th April at 10.30am. 

Anglers are advised to check their online booking login to make sure they have all their login details. Passwords can be easily reset on the system, but we advise to do this before Monday 16th March to avoid disappointment. 

Once more the competition is supported by Severn Trent Water and with a prize pot of nearly £50,000, there’s sure to be a high demand for the following 25 qualifiers:
