Event of the Week: Duck Race returning to Cheddar thanks to efforts of Lions

It is a bank holiday and a number of events are taking place today (August 30) and all week in Cheddar.

A number of these events in the Cheddar area are being added to our recently revamped What's On section.

Our top event pick for this week is the Cheddar Vale Lions Duck Race, which will be taking place in the Gorge.

The most enjoyable fun day in the Gorge has been sadly missed, usually held on an earlier Bank Holiday Monday.

Not wanting to disappoint everyone, Cheddar Vale Lions Club has decided to hold it this year on the later date to make sure that the Covid rules would allow it to happen.

The event is taking place today (August 30) from 2pm, and for more information, check out the website here.

You can list your events - e.g. shows, films, sports fixtures, quiz nights, local markets, steak nights at the local pub, jazz choir rehearsals, or anything else - on our What's On page FREE of charge, just click this link and then click the black Nub It button.
