The long-awaited return of the Teddington Village Fair is finally over as the renowned event lands back in TW11 this weekend.

Organised by The Rotary Club of Teddington and the Hamptons alongside the Teddington Society, St Mary with St Alban Parish, Landmark Arts Centre and Teddington Scouts, the Teddington Village Fair returns to Udney Hall Gardens this Sunday (June 25) running from 12 - 5pm following a three-year hiatus.

The sun is set to be shining with temperatures reaching as high as 28C on an afternoon that promises a host of music and dance performances, fun and games from a series of Teddington community groups and food and drink from the areas' favourite businesses.

Commenting on the significance of the village fair within the event's programme, The Rotary Club of Teddington and the Hamptons said: "We see this, the traditional Village Fair, as an important part of the annual calendar for the "village" of Teddington, helping our community groups keep in touch with all who live locally, and have some fun while doing it.

"Our stall holders are mainly from the many voluntary services and charities we have in our area. From the Scouts and Guides to charities such as the River Thames Boat Project and United Response, they are all here to show you what they are doing in the community, to entertain you and coax you to get involved..."
