Loughborough’s Gardeners’ Fair goes ahead

Some green spaces in the town are closed this weekend due to forecast high winds.

No matter the weather Loughborough’s Gardeners' Fair is going ahead this Sunday.

High winds are expected over the weekend.

Love Loughborough has said that after speaking to all growers and plant sellers they have all insisted on continuing with the fair.

Loughborough businesses have come forward to offer their indoor spaces, so there will be Artisan Makers in The Odeon Cinema, Loughborough Town Hall & The Carillon Shopping Centre.

Love Loughborough said: "The Fair will not be quite as planned, but with some clever thinking and tremendous support from local businesses and traders, we are able to put on a show."

Due to high winds, both the Outwoods and Queen's Park in Loughborough will be closed this weekend.

Olivia's Coffee & Bakery based at the Outwoods will also not be open.

Charnwood Museum will be open and access is through the entrance on Granby Street.
