A HORTICULTURAL community event will see visitors of all ages return for two days of festivities.

Gardening enthusiasts will take to Swallowfield Park, Church Road, for the The Swallowfield Show 2023 will take place over the bank holiday weekend on August 27 and 28.

Run by volunteers and friends of Swallowfield Horticultural Society, the family event showcases the best produce the community has to offer through competitions and main stage entertainment.

Organiser Sara Creech said: “We’re feeling very positive and have our fingers crossed for good weather. That always plays an important role, but the forecast looks good for the end of August.

“There’s something for everyone, a proper family day out. There’s lots to keep the children entertained and lots for the adults too. It’s a good value day out and well worth coming to.”

Tickets cost £10 for adults with children admitted free of charge. Tickets will give visitors entry for one day only.
