Today we celebrate the amazing Mums who help keep the fair running while also being superheroes at home. 💐
From early mornings to late nights, they do it all.

Happy Mother’s Day to all the wonderful mums out there! 💚

⚠️Storm Darragh is currently doing its worst so we must do our best to minimise potential risks.
We have therefore took the decision to close our Christmas Fair today which is currently running in the city centre.

The Light Trail in Abbey Park will also be closed today.

We are sorry for any inconvenience or disappointment caused and we hope you are able to visit us soon, in more settled conditions.
Stay safe everyone 💚

The @bbfunfair is back in Abbey Park for the summer. All the way through to the 26 August. 1-8pm during the week and 12noon to 8pm at the weekends! The perfect way to get rid of some of that pent up energy!

Unfortunately we had a deluge of rain during the night and into the early hours of this morning which has left the park very waterlogged.
In order to protect the ground conditions for the days ahead we have made the decision not to open the Fair today.
The weather looks more promising from tomorrow so we hope you are able to reschedule your visit if you had planned on coming to Abbey Park today.
We are sorry for any disappointment or inconvenience this may cause. Hopefully the weather will catch up soon and start behaving like it is actually mid July! 🙏🏽
Hope to see you soon, BB Team 💚

We are NOW OPEN!

[Billy Bates & Sons @BBfunfair]

Due to the adverse weather conditions and particularly strong winds affecting much of the UK, we regret to inform you that the opening of the Fair at Abbey Park will be postponed.
Current forecasts indicate an improvement in weather conditions by this afternoon and as such, we are aiming to open the Fair at 3pm.

We encourage you to stay updated on the latest developments and information by following our social media channels. We understand the disappointment this may cause, especially following yesterday’s closure and wish to assure you that these decisions are made with the utmost concern for public safety.
Thank you for your understanding and patience.
BB Team 💚 #StormKathleen
