Despite the weather gods doing their best to dampen (or blow away) our spirits we had another enjoyable and I hope successful festival again this year. We had lots of new faces bringing their wares to sell and more entertainment than ever. On the Saturday, despite having to cancel all the gazebo owning stall holders, for safety reasons, the visitors who came tell us they still had a great day. The Sunday was more business as usual with a great crowd.

This year saw a record number of volunteers helping to keep everything going and our deep and sincere thanks go to each and everyone of them.

On behalf of the whole village we would like to take this opportunity the thank The Wakelin Family, John and Cathie at Whitegates and all at Blisworth house for allowing the festival to use their land as well as an amazing amount of help along the way.

We will hold an open meeting in a few weeks to talk about next years festival and we hope as many people as possible will attend and in the meantime a heartfelt thank you for your continuing support

The Blisworth Canal Partnership.
