Mortimer Fun Day Back for 2025

After a seven-year hiatus, the ever-popular Mortimer Fun Day will return on Saturday 05 July. 

The event will be held on Mortimer Fairground and will be hosted by Mortimer Village Partnership (MVP) and Mortimer Music Live (MML). 

For those new to the village, this event has been a beloved tradition for over a decade.  During the day, entrance will be free of charge to all.  Any help you can give in running this event would be really appreciated,  follow this link:  Click to View Volunteer Opportunities on SignUp

You can expect exciting arena acts including a walkabout dinosaur and a thrilling parkour demonstration (see below) alongside local dance, singing and acrobatic groups.  

Classic summer fete activities including coconut shies and welly-wanging will also be happening! Local clubs and societies will be running these activities, giving them a chance to fundraise while connecting with the wider community. And, of course, no Fun Day would be complete without a Beer Tent, offering local beers and a selection of refreshing summer drinks.

The fourth Mortimer Fun Day last Saturday was not blessed with the glorious sunshine of the first three, but was still a great success. Plenty of hardy people braved the intermittent showers to have a fantastic time, entertained by superb arena events and music, and trying out a bigger than ever range of activities! Thank you for supporting the Fun Day!!!

MVP warmly thanks the many volunteers who worked through torrential rain on Friday to get everything set up, then again from crack of dawn on Saturday, and then again on Sunday to take down and clear up. You really are the heroes of Mortimer!
