“I think Jacob will support the festival and other community events and I look forward to seeing him on the day”.
John Young, events manager from CJ’s Events Warwickshire said: The festival guide is a new feature with this year’s planning.
“It’ll include a list of traders, staging times for the entertainment and cookery theatre, along with a site layout and offers from local business.

“We love getting the community involved, and what a great way by offering local school pupils the opportunity to design the front cover. We’ve had an amazing response and we’ll be sure to repeat this again next year”.
