Our event booking system is now open again. Any events booked must comply with Coronavirus restrictions in place at the time of the event. Please see the Government roadmap for lifting lockdown for more information about what you and cannot do at each stage. These dates are subject to changes, and the Council has the right to withdraw the event without notice if Government restrictions mean that the event cannot take place. Thanks for your understanding and patience during this time.
