Mill Road Winter Fair has been cancelled 😢 A massive shame for all the organisers and those of us who were trading on Saturday, but an entirely understandable decision
I'll be taking some pictures of some of the special pieces I made for the fair, and they'll be available for sale immediately, so watch this space! 🍄🐦⬛🌨
Cancellation - Mill Road Winter Fair Saturday 7th December 2024
With great regret, due to Storm Darragh, where wind speeds are predicted to reach 60mph, in addition to rain, organisers have taken the difficult decision to cancel Mill Road Winter Fair on Saturday 7th December.
All Mill Road Winter Fair activities have been cancelled and Mill Road will remain open.
The predicted level of wind and rain expected during the Fair is above the limits to ensure the safety of our attenders, volunteers, stallholders and other participants such as our parades, stages, buskers and dancers.
Following a year of planning and the involvement of so many volunteers, community groups and local businesses, this is a bitter disappointment and a huge financial blow, but our first responsibility is to the safety of our beloved Mill Road community.
This decision has been necessary now in order to allow us time to communicate effectively with all the involved groups as well as the public likely to attend.
