We are delighted to announce our line up for 2018 and it really is bigger and better than ever before! We have double the amount of stalls, a fantastic line up of entertainment, pony rides, Dudley Zoo and birds of prey. Did we mention a sweet stall, the Cake Bake off, tons of tombolas, pig roast, ice creams and bouncy castle. Not forgetting Guide Dogs (and puppies), the Go Kart Challenge, tree climbing demos… And it all kicks off at 11am with the Dog Show with the Picnic proper opening at 12 noon.
TV Vet Alice Rhodes will be judging the fun Dog Show from 11 and you can enter on the day. There are rosettes to 3rd place this year, and a fabulous Best Dog in Show rosette and Buddy’s Cup for the overall winner!
Alice will be joined by our logo competition winners to open the Picnic at 12 noon and this leads to 5 hours of fun, entertainment, activities, food, competitions and stalls.
At 5pm we move over to the Cricket Club for live music with the Blurtone, real ale and more food.
The event is free to attend but we will be doing a bucket shake at the end for this year’s nominated charities – The Lounge and Hopwood Community Park.
Hope to see you there! And don’t forget to download your free Picnic Programme 2018
