Between 11am and 4pm there will be the opportunity to watch classic shows such as Punch and Judy, see local performers take to the stage, and peruse a range of stalls such as local craft products and information about opportunities to get involved in the community.

The range of activities, performances, and stalls promises that there will be something for everyone.”
