Funfairs are due to arrive in Fenland towns once again.
Some of the fairs operate from Fenland District Council car parks and land.
Please note the funfairs are not operated by Fenland District Council and opening times and days are at the discretion of the operators.
The dates listed are those during which fairground vehicles and funfairs will arrive and leave. Funfairs will not necessarily be open to the public on all the dates shown. Please check with operators for opening days and times.
