Rebecca Power, one of the event organisers, said: “There will be food, fun and games!

“We are still in the process of confirming and finalising all the details, but we expect to have falconry demonstrations, horse stunt groups, and duck herding.

“There will also be raffles and prizes, talks about canine dentistry, rabbit care and management, and performances from a dance group.

“It should be a great family-friendly afternoon out.”

Tickets can be bought at the entrance to the event. Adult tickets are £8, concessions are £5 and family tickets are £20.
