Kingsbridge Fair Week is back!

Kingsbridge Fair Week is back this weekend!

After a two-year gap, Kingsbridge Fair Week is returning returning to the town this Saturday and will be bringing fun and excitement back to the summer all of next week.

Being held between Saturday, 16 July - Saturday, 23 July, Kingsbridge will see live music, celebration and entertainment across all seven days.

Watch the chaos that is the raft race, the beauty of the fireworks, exercise your brain with the Crazy Quiz or try your hand at the boules competition.

For the youngsters, Rowlands Fun Fair will be on the Quayside car park with rides, waltzers, dodgers and more, and throughout the week they can enjoy themselves at the children's disco, teddy bear picnic, the floral dance, the country dancing and the lantern parade.

If that isn’t enough, there will also be the 10K road race, the fun run, the football competition, the dog show and much more, all polished off with the carnival parade on Saturday night.

After two years of the pandemic and the aftermath, the return of Kingsbridge Fair Week will signal a welcome return to normality as well as a return to the tradition and celebration of the South Hams and our community.

This year’s Lantern Parade has a ‘celebration’ theme. There will be two free family workshop days on Saturday 16 and Sunday 17 July for you to create your lantern. These workshops will be held on the grass area outside Quay House from 11am – 5pm on both days.

Anyone, of any age, can make their own lantern on this year’s theme and join in the parade on Wednesday, 20 July. Lanterns should be lit by battery-operated lights. Organisers reminded people that their children would have to carry the lantern from the top of town car park to the Town Square, so “watch the weight”.
