A Large Village Fete With A Modern Twist
THERE WILL BE NO BANK HOLIDAY FETE IN 2022
Unfortunately, due to technical and operational reasons we are unable to hold a fete this year.
However, following the very successful showing of Mamma Mia last year we are pleased to announce another great outdoor movie experience this year featuring the all time classic musical GREASE.
Event Overview
The Much Hadham fete is a free to enter annual event designed for the whole family. Held annually for more than 60 years this large event successfully combines traditional and modern elements for a truly entertaining afternoon in one of Hertfordshire’s prettiest villages.
There are fairground rides for those looking for excitement, and a wide range of trade stalls, traditional crafts, side-shows and brass band for those who prefer a more leisurely experience.
The well-established Kennel Club registered companion dog show attracts owners from far and wide to compete in a wide range of classes for all levels, and the Dog Agility Competition adds an extra dimension with additional fun classes.
