Event Day Catering & Picnics

Every year we make sure we have a selection of caterers at the event to ensure people are well catered for, whether they don't wish to bring their own picnic or they finish it all by 7pm and get peckish later on! We'll have more information soon on which caterers will be attending on the day and how you can preorder a picnic.
