DAYAMF

Join us for a lively and nostalgic day out to the much-loved Abingdon Michaelmas Fair, one of the oldest and largest street fairs in Europe and a true highlight of the autumn calendar.

Held each October in the historic market town of Abingdon, the Michaelmas Fair transforms the town centre into a colourful celebration packed with excitement, entertainment and traditional fun. With its roots stretching back over 900 years, this famous fair blends centuries-old heritage with the buzz of a modern funfair.

As you arrive, you’ll find streets lined with thrilling rides, classic fairground attractions, bright lights and the unmistakable sounds of the fair. From high-adrenaline rides for thrill-seekers to gentler attractions, games and stalls, there’s something for everyone to enjoy. The scent of fairground treats fills the air, with plenty of chances to indulge in traditional favourites such as candy floss, toffee apples and hot snacks

Alongside the fair itself, you’ll also have time to explore Abingdon’s charming town centre. Home to historic buildings, independent shops and welcoming cafés, it’s a great place to soak up the atmosphere or enjoy a relaxed break away from the rides.

With return coach travel included, this day trip takes all the hassle out of visiting one of the UK’s most popular fairs. Simply sit back, relax and enjoy the journey while we take you straight to the heart of the action.

Whether you’re revisiting a childhood favourite or experiencing the Abingdon Michaelmas Fair for the first time, this is a fantastic day out full of colour, energy and traditional British fun. Early booking is recommended for this popular event, so don’t miss your chance to be part of this historic celebration.
