One of the highlights of this year’s Rowlands Castle Village Fair is a fantastic programme of live music and entertainment running throughout the day and well into the evening.
From traditional brass band favourites and Morris dancing to talented local performers, a headline Queen tribute act and a late-night DJ set, there’s something for everyone to enjoy on Saturday 4th July.
The Day Begins with Tradition
The music starts at 11.30am when the ever-popular Blendworth Brass Band takes to the stage. A regular favourite at the fair, their uplifting performance is the perfect way to get the day underway.
Shortly afterwards, at 12.45pm, the Victory Morris Men bring colour, energy and a touch of English tradition to the village green. Their lively display of Morris dancing is always a crowd-pleaser and a wonderful part of the fair’s heritage.
Local Talent Takes Centre Stage
Throughout the afternoon, a series of talented performers will keep the entertainment flowing:
- 1.30pm – Velvet Whiskers
- 2.45pm – Alice Milburn
- 4.00pm – Marley Blandford
- 5.15pm – AstroModa
Whether you enjoy acoustic melodies, contemporary sounds or energetic live performances, these acts showcase some of the best local musical talent around.
Evening Entertainment
As the afternoon turns into evening, the atmosphere shifts up a gear.
At 6.30pm, The Generation Game take to the stage to keep the crowd entertained with a lively set guaranteed to get people singing along.
Then, at 8.00pm, the fair welcomes its headline act, Forever Queen. Expect all the iconic hits, soaring vocals and unforgettable stage presence that have made Queen one of the world’s most loved bands. It’s set to be a spectacular performance and a fitting climax to a fantastic day.
Party into the Night
Just when you think the music is over, DJ Loz takes over at 10.00pm, keeping the party going with an upbeat mix of crowd favourites until the fair closes at 11.00pm.
A Full Day of Entertainment
With live music running from morning through to late evening, plus the dog show, Punch and Judy, fairground rides, food stalls, bar, horticultural show and much more, the Rowlands Castle Village Fair promises a memorable day out for the whole family.
So bring your friends, bring your neighbours and make a day of it. Whether you’re a fan of brass bands, folk traditions, live bands, classic rock or dancing under the summer sky, you’ll find something to enjoy at this year’s fair.
