Important information
-
We are very lucky to have received funding from Suffolk County Council, East Suffolk Council, Bungay Town Council and BEBA (Bungay Events and Business Association). This means that most of the weekend events are free. There will be free music and Morris dancing during the day on Saturday and Sunday. There is a Folk Picnic on Sunday afternoon on Bungay Castle Bailey and a free family ceilidh on both Saturday and Sunday afternoons in the Community Centre.
-
There will be music sessions taking place across the town in the pubs and the Three Tuns Cellar will host several bands as well. We have a number of lovely places such as Falcon Meadow, the Castle Bailey, Dinky’s garden and music friendly cafes and galleries that would welcome a tune or two. Just ask if its okay first as they may be very busy at that time.
