SUMMARY:Abingdon Michaelmas Fair
DESCRIPTION:Abingdon Michaelmas Fair will take place on Monday 4th and Tuesday 5th October 2021 from 12 noon to 11pm each day. \nThe Michaelmas Fair is the longest street fair in Europe\, running from the Market Place\, through the High Street\, The Square and the full length of Ock Street. This historic street fair has its origins in the shortage of labour following the Black Death of 1348/9. The Fair was a hiring fair\, the equivalent of today’s employment agencies and online job websites. \nThe Michaelmas Fair starts setting up from on Sunday\, after which there are road closures and diversions to enable the traditional street fair to take place. There are also closures and diversions the following week for the Runaway Fair. \nTo mark the start of the Fairs\, the Town Council is organising the traditional Fairground Service of Blessing and Dedication. This will take place at 7pm on Sunday 3rd October 2021 on the Galloping Horses in the Market Place. All are very welcome. \n\n\n			\n	\n			Related documents	\n\n\n\n	\n\n	\n		\n		\n\n			\n							 \n			\n							\n			Abingdon Fair residents & businesses letter 2021\n			\n			\n\n			\n			\n			\n			\n							File size: 63 KB
