What a spectacular way to kick off the festive season! π
That's a wrap on the very first Padstow Christmas Fayre! Reimagined, revived, and brimming with Cornish spirit - thank you so much to all of you who braved the weather and visited over the weekend βοΈ
We were treated to masterclasses and culinary inspiration from Cornish royalty, the whole town was alive with festive cheer, with a Market Hall a hive of activity - the 2025 Fayre was a true celebration of Cornish food, drink, and community. π₯
πͺ Extra special thanks to Community of Padstow, Padstow Steering Group, Padstow Harbour Commissioners, Padstow TIC, Padstow Town Council, Padstow Craft Fair, and Trevethan Farm. We'd also like to thank Paul Ainsworth, Rick Stein & all of the wonderful chefs that joined us, as well as Truro & Penwith college, Steven Lamb, Steve Ashworth, Rose Cant & Kim Somauroo. Of course, all the
traders & musicians, our charity partners: The Fisherman's Mission, Padstow Lifeboat, Hospitality Action, our sponsors: Tarquin's, Prideaux Walled Garden, The Pig, Norton Barton Artisan Food Village, St Ewe, Beach Retreats, Camel Valley, The Cornish Larder, Bluntrock Brewery, Verdant, Rodda's, and of course our event suppliers & partners: Aussie Marquees, Sam Williams, event crew, Caitlin Mogridge & Adam Sargent, South West Bars & Events, & Meor Design.
Without your generosity, kindness and support none of this would be possible and we are enormously grateful. Now, it's time to enjoy Christmas, and then we promise we'll get on with cooking up plans for next year's Fayre! π€
