One of Garstang’s most popular annual events returns this weekend, after a shock cancellation earlier this year.
The Garstang Scarecrow Festival began in 2019 and sees thousands of people descend on the market town to enjoy the many creative displays that pop up in people’s gardens and at businesses and public spaces.
Many families also look forward to the family funfair and the event has grown into a cherished community celebration.
The festival was originally scheduled to return this July, with the theme of ‘sport’ but organisers announced earlier this year that the event would no longer go ahead.
Three weeks later, organisers took to social media once again to confirm that the much-loved trail would be returning, running alongside Garstang Summer Festival at Garstang Sports Club between Friday, June 26 and Sunday, June 28.
