~~~ Bradfield Mayfayre 2008 ~~~ ~~ Monday May 5th from 12:00 ~~

The Bradfield Village Mayfayre takes place again this year on the first Bank Holiday in May. Join us on the village playing field in Southend Bradfield, behind the village hall.

Gates open at 12:00 and events start at 1:30 with the arrival of the May Queen, followed by Maypole Dancing with Bradfield School of Dance. 

Centre Ring events include the spectacular TEAM M.A.D. Mountain Bike Aerial Display, horse riding and dressage display from Wellington Riding School, our very own Crufts-winning Gun Dog Display by Ian Scutter and the usual but not-to-be-missed chaos and excitement that is the annual Bradfield Pig Racing derby.  Plus there is the opportunity to play Ben Hurrrrrr in the spectator-participation open invitation Chariot Team races!!
