Saturn's Schedule

   

Plans for Cheshire's Floating Garden Festival (8th-15th June) are well under way, and historic boat 'Saturn' has a full schedule of events for her trip from Audlem to the Folk and Boat Festival at Middlewich.

Several local schools will have the opportunity to visit Saturn during the week and learn about her history, as well as participating in garden-themed activities.

There is a full programme of events at the launch weekend in Audlem on 7th & 8th June, including boat-horse harnessing, canal painting, rag-rug making and many other displays.  There will also be performances from The Crofters and Day Star Theatre - see the Floating Gardens website for more details.

En route to Middlewich, Saturn will be stopping at Nantwich, and then moving on to Barbridge where there are two evening events that are open to all.  On Tuesday 10th June, there will be a waterways talk and live band at The Jolly Tar Inn - be there from 6.30 pm onwards.  Then get your brain limbered up for a waterways-themed pub quiz at The Olde Barbridge Inn on Wednesday 11th June.  Watch this space for more details.

More details will appear here nearer the time, so do come back and find out more about how to get involved
