Father’s Day - Take Dad out for a FEAST day

A feast of food, music, entertainment and fun is promised at the first ever FEAST event to be held in the grounds of Waddesdon Manor over the Father’s Day weekend (10am - 5pm Saturday June 20 and Sunday 21).

The North Front of the manor will be transformed with elaborately decorated tables, where visitors can take a seat and enjoy a picnic brought from home or purchase some of the food on offer from one of the 50 artisan food and wine stalls.

The Young Pilgrims Marching Band will bring rock-induced, brass band madness to the weekend, welcoming visitors on arrival and performing throughout the day.
