Arreton Barns will be staging a June Bank Holiday weekend of Jubilee fun on Saturday 4th and Sunday 5th June.

Saturday will be aimed firmly at family fun. Join Bob the Cob and Connie Corn from 10:00 – 16:00.

There’s also a Jubilee themed treasure trail as well as live music and entertainment.

At 13:00, there will be a fun-filled children’s tea party with food kindly donated from Asda. Entry to the event is free. All money raised will go to Aspire in Ryde, so donations on the day will be greatly appreciated.
