Festival of Fools

How else could we describe this colourful event the Festival of Fools? This is by far one of Cumbria’s favourite annual events, the Festival of Fools offer the opportunity to place a smile on anyone’s face. A sample of this year’s highlights and performers as follows:

New for 2010 - We had Tom Fool's Foolish Flyer Zip Wire! From Tom's Tree in front of the Castle zoom at speeds of over 35MPH, 200 metres towards the River Esk. There were various side shows including a giant bouncy pirate ship, foolish ferret racing, as well as a bar and BBQ each day in the Marquee, plus all Muncaster's usual attractions - so why not come and enjoy next years Festival!

Muncaster Castle, never a dull moment!!
