Folkingham Remembers Operation Market Garden
Folkingham Remembers Operation Market Garden
Set sail with us on the next Aveland Odyssey free festival, to celebrate the men who flew from USAAF 484 Folkingham in 1944. The weekend will see the village of Folkingham recreated as it was 80 years earlier when the planes and gliders took off for Operation Market Garden. The festival will be held in several locations throughout the village.
There will be a variety of Enactors and Vehicle Trusts, as well as representatives portraying the Home Guard and the Women’s Land Army, For our younger visitors there will be Children’s Theatre, free make-and-take activities, and a chance to get hands-on with items from the war era. A programme of singers and dancers across 3 stages will keep the spirits soaring. There will be exhibitions, displays, and history trails, and a series of lectures by prominent authors and historians will be presented in the Village Hall.
Food courts and market traders will allow a bit of R&R
