Kilburn Feast

Kilburn Feast A traditional village fete, raising money for charity and bringing local community together The Kilburn Feast has existed from time immemorial.

This event happens ever year due to the kindness and committment of the Friends of the Feast . It starts on the Saturday after July 6th. Formerly, on the Saturday, men played quoits in the Square and children ran races in the cricket field. On the Sunday there was an open air service in the Square. On the Monday evening there was horse trotting and later, sulky (two-wheeled carriage) and motor-cyc

le races around the cricket field, the evening ending in a dance at the village hall. On the Tuesday, celebrations were of a local nature and enshrined the most ancient features of the Feast. Now the events are based around the Friday to and including Sunday.
