ONE OF Wokingham’s big calendar events is returning this year.
The May Fayre, organised by the Wokingham Lions Club, will be back on Monday, May 2.
Organisers are now inviting charities, crafters, food vendors, commercial traders and providers of children’s rides and entertainment to apply for a pitch or stall.
Having been cancelled for the last two years, organisers say that expectations are high for this year’s event.
“The Wokingham May Fayre commenced in 1995, organised by the Wokingham Lions Club,” said Alan Rouse, May Fayre chairman. “It is one of the largest street fairs in the south of England.”
Mr Rouse said that the main goal of the fayre is to help charities and organisations raise money for their causes.
“It’s a wonderful day out for families and people of all ages, where we celebrate the town’s culture on the stage, with many local groups performing,” Mr Rouse added. “Our committee is working very hard to make it a success. We also always have tremendous support from our Town Council.”
Allocation of stalls is on a first come basis. This year’s event will take place in the town centre and Elms Field.
All applications and payments must be made before Thursday, March 31, to allow for pitch allocation.
