This year’s festival will feature music, stalls, children’s entertainers, bus rides, local food and drink (including award-winning pies), and a best dressed competition (so head along in fancy dress to bag a prize).

Entertainment will include music from the Blowjangles street band and High Society Jazz Band, and dance performances from the Royal Preston Morris Dancers and Amounderness Ladies Morris Dancers.

There will also be traditional displays and entertainment from The Extraordinary Victorians, a band of Victorian travellers who seek the fortune and fame of the Great British Music Hall Tradition.

Stall holders will be in period dress and a big red bus will be ferrying visitors to and from Grange Station. Alternatively there will be free parking on Berners Close car park.

When: 13th July 2019, 10am – 4pm
Where: Park Road Gardens, Grange-over-Sands, Cumbria
£: Admission costs £2.50 for adults, and children go free
