Thursday 22nd May 2025

Hi ,

Well OK, Eurovision didn't quite go to plan this year but we now have ANOTHER Bank Holiday to look forward to this weekend! - the last one for a few weeks anyway.

There's loads going on in the next few weeks as you'll see on the Events/Whats On tab, but the final meet of DINGLEY (Point to Point) RACES this year is on this Saturday 24th May with the 1st race scheduled for 2pm. If the weather is kind, it's an especially great place to be - where you can take a picnic and be with friends and family for a great day out.

It seems we are still very much a nation of CAR BOOT SALE lovers and this SUNDAY, you have a choice - The highly popular SADDINGTON CAR BOOT SALE is of course open as usual (weather permitting) but also (this week only), WELLAND PARK ACADEMY is hosting a Car Boot Sale. The sale will be open to the public from 9am to midday, with setup for sellers starting at 8am. Table-top pitches are available for those who do not have a car. Hot and cold drinks, toast, crumpets, and other breakfast items will be served.

There are some great offers again this week for bargain hunters including a FLASH SALE ON FRIDAY (only) between 2pm and 6pm of a superb BELGIAN BEER at DUNCAN MURRAY WINES. They advise me they have a very limited stock of this very special beer, so you'll have to be quick to grab this one time deal. CLICK HERE for all the details.

Please scroll down and take a look at all our great local offers from some of the best recommended businesses in Market Harborough and find loads of upcoming events in and around the town, brought to you weekly by thebestof Market Harborough, your community hub for thebestof everything local.

Have a great bank holiday week,

Simon
