A new family event is set to be held in Burnham-On-Sea on Wednesday July 31st in place of Apex Park’s Playday which has been cancelled due to a funding shortfall caused by Somerset Council’s financial cutbacks.
The Apex Park Playday organisers said in January that the event was under threat and then in March confirmed the cancellation.
Now, the group behind Burnham’s regular car boot sales has stepped forward to announce a new family event will be held on Wednesday July 31st at the BASC sports ground from 11am-4pm.
Organiser Paul Goodyer, pictured, says: “We are excited to announce a new event for Burnham on July 31st – a ‘mega mascot fun day’ with lots of childrens characters, inflatables, children’s rides and entertainment.”
“There will also be Dinky Dino shows, JS Kids magic shows, plus craft and food stalls. Entry will be £2 per adult and free for accompanied children.”
There will also be a car boot sale at £10 for all vehicles. Car boot sellers are prebookable only via www.paulspromotions.uk
Organisers say the event is now full for crafters/entertainers. The event is a no dog venue and only assistance dogs are allowed with paperwork. Onsite parking is free.
