Widcombe Rising 2012Widcombe's fabulous street partyDate: Sunday 17th June 2012 Venue: Claverton Street and the surrounding streets Time: 1.30pm - 7.30pm 
Watch this space for details of Bath's biggest and best street party and family fun day. Once again our streets will be filled with fun, food and frolics. We've got an Olympic theme this time and there will be snail racing, trapeze artists, hula-hooping and kids sporting activities, with the theme being Retro Sporting Heroes from Ancient Greece to now…so get out those long Chariots of Fire shorts! The Farmers' Market proved to be such a success last time that all the stalls have signed up again, plus more. Lady Margaret's Dog Show will once again be a barking mad attraction, plus Her Ladyship has announced she will also be organising a Mr Widcombe contest. As usual there will be several stages. Two new developments will be the wonderfully decorative Melodrome stage with its elaborately painted façade and red velvet curtains, and Not The Pump Room - an elegant palm court café in Natural Theatre's new studio, complete with a Not The Pump Room Trio!
