Organisers have confirmed the motorbike racing will be back this year, following an accident at last year’s event which left rider Sean Vose paralysed.

Entertaining the crowds will be a DJ as well as bar.

The first competitions start at 11.30am. The site has free car parking and admission is £7.50.
