Lilleshall Scarecrow Festival

18 September 2021 - Newport Shropshire

what's happening on the day

The much anticipated Lilleshall Scarecrow Festival is taking place on Saturday 18th September and is now in its 3rd year and - apparently with at least 40 scarecrows having been registered so far!

They have had such imaginative entries over the last couple of years and are excited to see what the villagers can pull together, either in their own gardens or placed at the school. All entries should be registered with Matthew Gurd on 07890 586737 or email lilleshallscarecrow@yahoo.com before 3pm on Friday 17th September.

Lilleshall Preschool will host the event, which will begin at 10am on September 18th in the preschool grounds, but will take place across the village.

People attending the festival will be invited to join the fun by walking the scarecrow trail and scoring their favourite scarecrows.

The event is run for, and in conjunction with, Lilleshall Preschool which is a registered charity and benefits children directly from funds raised on the day. The preschool are holding a fete at the preschool where various stalls can be enjoyed and gifts/food can be purchased.

A great family day out!
