My 3 best things to do next week in & around Preston including RockPrest & Garstang Scarecrow Festival
Senior reporter Aimee Seddon with her entertainment guide to three best things to do next week in and around Preston.


The free trail takes place all across Garstang across the three days but on Sunday there is also a family fun day at Garstang Cricket Club off Lancaster Road.
Starting at 3pm, this event will feature live performances, fun activities, refreshments and a presentation of Scarecrow Winners.


Also in Preston, the ever popular RockPrest returns on Saturday, June 27 and Sunday, June 28.
The annual event will see over 30 live bands take to three stages across the two days.
Expect to hear tracks from the likes of Green Day, Metallica, Queen, the Artic Moneys and many, many more.
VIP tickets have sold out but Standard tickets are still available, costing £18 per day for adults, £12.50 for those age 3-17 and £11.25 for those aged 6-12 whilst under sixes go free.


Finally, in South Ribble, St Catherine’s Hospice is holding its annual Moonlight and Memories Walk on Saturday, June 27.
The popular event- which in previous years has attracted over 800 participants- sees hundreds of colourfully dressed walkers set out together for an evening stroll to honour a loved one who has died and to raise money for St Catherine’s Hospice.
The evening starts at 5.30pm in the Hospice’s beautiful grounds – St Catherine’s Park, at Lostock Hall - but the walk starts at 8:00pm.
Registration is £15 for adults and £10 for children and can be paid via the Hospice website or in person at reception 10am to 4pm daily.
