Chill Zone in the Teepee

The mini village of teepees and yurts will this year be enhanced by colourful Indian Tents. A real place to explore, relax and enjoy.





Craft, Food & Kids Stalls

In true Festival fashion and adding to the village atmosphere, there will be a superb selection of stalls selling local produce and crafts, yummy food stalls, a festival bar and terrific live entertainment for everyone to enjoy.




Vintage Village - Love Vintage, Love Fashion

Visit the Vintage Village and buy a part of History. Brought to you by Vintage Clothing Experts, The Haslemere Wardrobe.





Haslemere's Past Crafts

New for this year will be a Countryside Corner, where demonstrations of that art of the Blacksmith can be seen, together with people demonstrating woodland skills. These will include wood turning using pole lathes, making Besom Brooms and walking sticks, hurdle making and willow weaving. Industries that were prevalent in and around Haslemere in past times.


Strong Man Competition

And for now something completely different, we now have our very own Strong Man Competition being managed by Muscle, Inc of Haslemere. On Saturday at 12:00 noon, there will be a three hour Team Strong Man Competition and then on Sunday at 12:00 noon there will be a three hour Novice Strong Man Competition. Come and see these incredible athletes carry out feats of strength that most of us can only dream about".







Story Telling In The Yurt

Come with your children and enjoy listening to stories in the beautiful and exotic settings of the yurt, teepees and Indian Tents. Stories will be told by The Surrey Guild of Story Tellers in association with Red Phoenix, who are passionate about the art of storytelling.




Haslemere celebrating the Queen's Diamond Jubilee

On Monday 4th June, Lion Green will come alive to the sound of people celebrating the Queen's Diamond Jubilee, a once in a lifetime opportunity to celebrate such an event. There will be live music on the Festival stage from 12:00 noon and you will be dancing to your favourite music from the 50s, 60s, 70s and other decades from Queen's reign, with the Upbeat Beatles leading the charge!

A Jubilee Carnival Procession will leave High Lane at approx 2:00PM and wind its way through Haslemere to Lion Green. When it arrives, there will be a jubilee picnic provided for up to 3000 people. We have even requested a fly past from the Red Arrows over Lion Green at that time.

The stalls and attractions from the previous two days of the Fringe Festival will still be in place, so there will be plenty to see and do. For more information about Haslemere's Diamond Jubilee celebration see: www.haslemere.com/jubilee.

Yoga

Once again, come and practise Yoga in the Marquee. Yoga is beneficial for all, whatever your level of fitness and ability, tones your muscles and helps keep the body flexible - why not give it a try!

This is just the start...
