The outdoor celebration starts from 1pm and continues until 7pm,
- live music,
- food/drink,
- roving traders,
- children’s entertainment,

Mooring facilities are available for roving traders, and mooring for non-traders along the Staffs & Worcs canal. Parking is also available at nearby RCR HQ in Tilcon Avenue. ST180YJ
Bringing together the local community, boaters, past and current RCR members, staff and families, the event will also raise money for the Stafford Riverway Link – a charity working to connect the Staffs & Worcs Canal with the rivers Penk/Sow, enabling navigation onto Stafford town centre.
