Tenbury Applefest 2011

Tenbury Applefest Tomorrow Sat 15th October

Apple Fantastic

The new format Tenbury Applefest was a great success.

Luckily the sun shone all day and the ground was just dry enough to withstand the onslaught from the large crowds who descended on Tenbury Burgage to wander the stalls, sample the various ciders and other fruity drinks and watch the non-stop entertainment.

The Apple Marquee was laden with Apples and other Autumn fruits, and did a brisk trade of tree sales.

This is the first year the annual Applefest was held on the Burgage as it had outgrown it's usual car park location, and a small admission charge was made for the first time, as grant income is now much reduced, whilst staging expenses continue to rise.

Next up is Mistletoefest on Saturday 4th December.

Applefest Discussion

This years Tenbury Applefest has been welcomed as a success by most local commentators, but there are undoubtedly a few lessons to be learnt.

The Tenbury Events Committee have requested feed-back by this coming Thursday so that all matters can be discussed and fed into next years plan.

Comments can be emailed to the event organisers via the tenburyevents.com website or by using the feedback form on the same site.
