Witheridge St John's Fair

The oldest fair in the country
Category: Touring Theatres and Fayres

Starts: Friday, June 20, 2008
Ends: Sunday, June 22, 2008

 

The 2008 St John's Fair promises to be the best yet, with more attractions and entertainments than ever before – including marching bands, majorettes, jazz, farm animals, fortune telling, Punch and Judy, street stalls, vintage tractors, children’s races and a fun dog show (all dogs welcome!). The grand parade starts at 10.30, and the fun continues through to the evening with a lively ceilidh. The town criers’ Devon Championship, which is held annually in Witheridge since 1992, is again taking place as part of the Fair.

The weekend’s fun begins on Friday evening 7:00pm in the Parish Hall with a programme of hilarious silent films, suitable for all the family, with live piano accompaniment - just like the good old days!
