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.

SUMMARY:History on a Plate - Heritage Weekend event
DESCRIPTION:Blue Plates\, similar to the Blue Plaque scheme\, will be displayed around the Town to commemorate establishments that sold food and drink and those who ran them. Some of these places no longer exist\, so look for the plates in unexpected places. \n\nOver the years\, buildings in Abingdon have changed their use as society and its needs have changed. Our Blue Plates are just a snapshot of some of the places that have now vanished\, such as cafés and restaurants\, or where the premises now do something different. Some were family-run shops like bakeries\, or beer retailers. The plates recall the names of some of the people who ran them\, too. In conjunction with the launch of the World War One website\, if any of these places had a connection with one of the featured soldiers or families on this site\, there will be a QR code to link you directly to the webpage so you can find out more. \nPick up a trail leaflet and family quiz sheet from our Market Place Information stall on Saturday or Sunday or download it from the Abingdon Heritage website https://www.abingdonheritage.org.uk/ from the evening of Friday 17 September.
