This years Digby Feast will feature new attractions. There will be a climbing wall, Lincolnshire Poacher Morris Team and traditional games for all.
Along with the normal attractions we have got numerous craft and art stalls, traditional outside games, hot and cold refreshments, duck race, a main arena full of attractions with the Starlite Twirlers, a fun dog show, the Angels Dance Squad, Lincolnshire Poacher Morris Men, Acorn Judo Display, Cross to Cross Race and lots more. There are also inflatables for the children and traditional games for the adults. There is something for all the family.
All the proceeds from the Digby Feast will go towards the Digby Village Hall. The village hall runs with all the user groups who pay their weekly rent. Any additional work like new windows and a disabled toilet have to be fundraised for. The proceeds from the Feast go towards this.
After the Feast we have got a 'Family Ceilidh & Disco' from 7:30pm until late. This is only £2 for adults and £1 for children. This is a family event to finish off the village event of the year. Fun for all the family at very cheap prices!!
