Exciting Stalls

Throughout the festival you will find a wide selection of interesting and varied stalls highlighting many of the services and businesses available in our community. Some names may be familiar, such as The Lions and The NCT. Others, like the local astronomy group & BBOWT may be more of a surprise. The Thames Valley Police mobile station will also be making an appearance. All of them are keen to show you what they do best and invite you to discover more about them.

Live Music !

We're looking forward to performances from The Retros, Man Make Fire, Jady Mirror and The Silver Band among others.
