Discover Oxfordshire at county fair

The best of the county will be on display at the Discover Oxford and Oxfordshire Fair on Thursday, February 25.

Attractions include information on stately homes, museums, guided tours, cycling, walking, boating, theatre and more, and is aimed at introducing people to the county’s hidden gems.

The Lord Mayor of Oxford, Councillor Mary Clarkson, said: “This event will be a chance for the many attractions and entertainment venues to show off what they can offer to the public.”  

Exhibitors include Blenheim Palace, Cotswold Wildlife Park, Didcot Railway Centre, Upton House and Oxfordshire Narrow Boats.

Free tours of the Town Hall by Mace Bearer will be taking place and Bill Spectre will be telling a ghost story. There will be ‘taster’ walking tours and narrow boat trips. The Four Fat Men with Ukuleles and flamenco guitarists will be playing. You will get to handle items from the museums and enjoy food from Fosters Catering. There will be a free prize draw and visitors will be given a 10 per cent discount voucher for the Gallery café in the Town Hall for that day.

The fair takes place at Oxford Town Hall, St Aldates, from 10.30am until 3.30pm, and entry is free.  For more information visit www.visitoxford.org or call 01865 252200.
