live music, bouncy castle, ‘village fete’ games such as hook a duck, splat the rat, and tombola, craft, food and other charity stalls and loads of green space to run around on the Common! Pets welcome. Make your very own Pooh Sticks badge and as its our 35th Anniversary, coming in fancy dress is warmly encouraged.

Over the years thousands of pounds have been raised for charity and this would not have been possible without the help of our volunteers. It is a wonderful event to be part of, so if you can spare a few hours to help set up in the morning, manning activities during the event or clearing up in the late afternoon, the Oxford Spires team would love to hear from you.
