Abingdon Air and Country Show
My friend was complaining the other day that Oxfordshire lacks exciting events for all the family – and moreover – that don’t break the bank in the process. I know what she means, but there are always things going on, you just have to look for them.
So I’ve set out to track one down and found out that the Abingdon Air and Country Show (Sun 3rd May) is celebrating its 10th Anniversary this year.
What does it offer? A large scale “fly in” of both modern and vintage aeroplanes, air displays, vintage cars, craft & trade market stalls, events including dog agility, music and dancing, a climbing wall, mini quad bikes, a bouncy castle… sounds like a jam packed day to me.
And more importantly, it’s all for charity; the Thames Valley and Children Air Ambulance. So you can have a fun day out and feel virtuous. Win win.
A family ticket is £22 and costs per head can be found here, or to read more about the day in general, check out their website
I think that we will definitely be going to that event, it sounds great! I knew that I would be able to find something great taht was going on in the area. When the kids are on tehir summer holidays, it can be hard to find things for them to do, so things like this are great.
I’ve decided now that I’m going to try and keep up to date with events in the area. We all love a day out, don’t we.
