Braunston May Fayre Braunston In Rutland Churchyard

Braunston May Fayre

Monday, May 6th

Event Summary
This year is the 30th anniversary event

With a thriving street market, children's fairground rides, family games, a craft market in the church, classic cars on the village green, games and bouncy castle outside the Village Hall.

The main day will start at around 10am when the Church bells will be ringing to open the Fayre. Throughout the day we have street stalls on Cedar Street and craft stalls in the Church. There will be food stalls, a fun-fair on the street and refreshments in the village hall. Also, outside the village hall there will be games on the green, a tombola for children and another for adults. These will finish when all the prizes have gone, so make sure get you there early !

On the music front, we have an outdoor stage on which the Oakham Sings! ladies' choir will be performing, as well as four bands. The first band slot is 10.15-11am for Trigger's Broom. Next, it's the Main Street Band from 11.15 to midday. Third up is Rebel Soul from 12.15-1pm and then to complete the show we have Toudion, a French dance band, on stage from 1.15-2pm.

At 12.30pm and again at 2pm, the Rutland Morris Men will be dancing on the street outside the Blue Ball pub.

Also starting at 12.30pm and continuing until 3pm, there is a 'have-a-go' dog agility event, interspersed with the dog show at 1pm; so bring your pooch if you have one!

At 2.30pm it will be time to head to the stream for the duck national - you'll need to buy tickets before then to have a chance of winning one of the fabulous prizes on offer. Tickets will be on sale from various locations around the village.

At 3pm it's time for the May Queen procession which is followed by Maypole dancing.

We end the day on another high with the draw for the grand raffle which is being held at 4pm outside the village hall.
