May Fayre - 2026
This year's May Fayre will take place from 2pm on Monday 4th May 2026 in the Balksbury Playing Field, Foundry Road, Anna Valley and the theme celebrates Star Wars. So, get your thinking caps on for fancy dress ideas and designs for the children’s raft race. (Details of raft dimensions to follow.)
The event is entirely run by volunteers and profits are given back to the local community. We always need volunteers who can help with:
- erecting the tents and gazebos on the day,
- collecting bric-a-brac and selling raffle tickets.
- running a stall.
- You may also be a local business who would like to donate a prize for our popular Raffle.
If you feel able to help in any way, please fill in the form below. Any help would be appreciated in order to keep the May Fayre running.
The Fayre has been held on the first Bank Holiday of May for around 40 years and is a popular event that attracts nearly 1000 visitors and generally raises over £4000 for the local community. The School, Scouts, Football Club, Gardening Club, Amateur Dramatics Society, WI, Playgroup and Church are just a few of the beneficiaries over the past few years.
