Running from 11:30am through to 10pm on Saturday, 15 August, this is a full-day family festival at Wilmslow Rugby Club. Expect activities and entertainment across the day—perfect for everyone from toddlers to grandparents. The vibe is deliberately feel-good, so bring the whole crew.
The vibe
This is proper community stuff: the kind of event where you actually bump into people you know and the atmosphere is genuinely relaxed. Rugby clubs know how to do family days well—there's space to move about, plenty going on without feeling hectic, and that rare thing: an event where parents can actually enjoy themselves whilst the kids are entertained.
Getting tickets
Details on pricing and how to book aren't yet confirmed, but Skiddle will have full ticket information as we get closer to August. Family day events like this often offer decent value, especially if you're buying for a group.
