Brampton Bryan VillageMore InformationBRAMPTON BRYAN SCARECROW & FLOWER FESTIVAL – SUNDAY 2nd AUGUST 2026
The historic village of Brampton Bryan is preparing to entertain you and your family at another spectacular festival. Book a guided tour of the Castle and learn about the Civil War sieges. Follow this year’s “Spectacular Sports” Scarecrow Trail through the village; marvel at the ingenious “sporty” flowers in the church. On the cricket pitch you can settle into the BBQ, teas, coffees, delicious cakes and ice creams; you can browse the stalls, have a go at archery or skittles, enter your dog in the fun Dog Show, have your face painted, step back in time with a ride in the Strawberry Cart – or just relax to the sounds of the Knighton Town Silver Band.
We look forward to seeing you! (PS flowers open 3rd and 4th too!)
