NOT THE Slaithwaite Moonraking Festival
The Slaithwaite Moonraking Festival will now take place every two years so this year there is NO lantern procession and there are NO lantern workshops.
The Festival will return in full in February 2011, the ‘odd’ festival in the ‘odd’ year.
But half term week really wouldn’t be the same without something happening in the village!
