I shall be at St James’s Church so come and find me there – I’m really looking forward to this one !!!!
The event has been very successful started 3 years ago and now in it’s 4th year, we are spreading up the high street to the Dolphin Centre in Poole as well as around Poole Quay and Old Town.
Last year we had over 8000 attendees and we think we should attract more this year due to the growth of the event and the more sponsorship and support we have received from the local community.
The event has a lot to offer including a parade at the start, a children’s entertainer, 9 music areas with over 40 performances a day, a treasure trail with lots of prizes a seafood (fresh and cooked) stalls on the quay and of course the artisan market.
