Redbourn 900 Finale

Sunday 12th September

We shift our focus back to the Common for the final events of Redbourn 900 celebrating Redbourn’s historical heritage including cricket, hats, buzzers and tea!  Reputedly one of the earliest cricket clubs in the country, some of the village’s 150 cricketing children will participate in a tournament, coached by celebrities including former England Cricket Captain, Mike Brearley.

Then it’s time to get our buzzers ready as we judge the village’s singing, dancing and variety acts in our very own ‘Redbourn’s Got Talent’.  Watch these events sporting your very own straw hat with teacup in hand as Redbourn recreates its very own Mad Hatter’s Tea Party, celebrating Redbourn’s Brooke Bond Tea Factory heritage and harking back to when the reeds from the River Red were used for straw plaiting for the hat industry.

Join us in attempting to break a Guinness World Record for dancing in hats on the Common, as a release of balloons signals the start of our tenth century.
