Despite the rain today, I popped over to the Highgate fair in the square to support my local fair and to see what it’s all about. I wasnt the only one braving the rain. The fair was packed with people, dogs, families, kids. There were over 120 stalls lining along pond square. I wasnt expecting such a large set up.
There was entertainment for adults and kids. There was a free train ride, face painting, punch and Judy show, a bungy jump, traditional games like test your strength, throwing coconuts, there were dancers, singers and musicians. For food, there was a wide selection of breads, cakes, pastries, cupcakes, Spanish food, Thai food, Southern street food, burgers, candy floss, cheese, waffles, crepes, truffles and organic vegetables. There were many charity stalls and handmade crafts such as vintage textile bags, woodwork, kids clothes and toys, silk scarves, jewellery, cards, prints, soaps, foral cups,
I think they should consider making this a regular summer event.
