Wymondham Abbey summer fair

Wymondham Abbey’s bustling summer fair will be brimming with salsa vibes on Saturday 3^rd August as the community is invited to a flash dance session to be filmed by drone.

In addition to browsing 80 stalls packed with Norfolk produce, street food, and bespoke crafts, both inside the Abbey and around the grounds, visitors are invited to join the Big Abbey Zumba.  The routine, led by Team Rachel Zumba, has been posted on social media, allowing the community to join in with confidence and create a co-ordinated dance display spanning the historic venue.

The free event will offer something for all ages, with live music from Eat Your Greens and Anto Morra; licensed bar by Craftily Bar Events; fitness challenges from Saxon Crossfit; nature-based activities from Cup O.T; Punch & Judy by Mr Sam the Magic Man; kids competitions; and a range of street food from Bella Ciao, Rambling Roots, and Lilwall’s Hog Roast.

Handcrafted wooden homeware, ceramics, textiles, knitwear, confectionary, bakes, jewellery, art, spirits from local distilleries, candles, plants, beauty products, and floral wreaths will be amongst the array of local produce.

ClearCompany CIC has joined forces with the Abbey over the last four years to create events to unite the community, and a platform for local enterprise and non-profit groups to showcase what they offer.

The Abbey Summer fair begins at 11am and will go on until late. The Zumba session is expected to burst into action around 1pm.  Anyone who would like to learn the Zumba routine in advance can find it at www.clearcompany.org.uk/events
