CHULMLEIGH OLD FAIR 2026.

Not long now until Chulmleigh Old Fair 2026 which will take place from Tuesday 28th July to Saturday 1st August 2026.

The committee have worked hard during the year planning our normal schedule of events but these will, as always, be subject to change or modification.

As such since '1253', Chulmleigh Old Fair has taken place.

Our programme will be hand delivered to properties in Chulmleigh, together with draw tickets, and they will also be available to collect from the local shops in Chulmleigh.

The theme for this year's fair will be 'Your favourite book'.......so get planning your scarecrow designs & think about your fancy dress outfits.

Keep smiling, keep well and keep the dates free.
