  Stumbled across this on the Dover Society site, looks to be an incredible event.

  Looks like a very good event and should bring a lot of public from other towns to see it.
  But sorry I will not be going .

  Had a look this morning,the whole of it should have been in Pencester gardens instead of around the precinct,would have made more of an event if it was all together.The blacksmith demonstration was good but outside an empty shop with a orange safety barrier isnt a very authentic setting for it.

  Maison Dieu - Town Hall - offered live entertainment - open to everyone.
  
  Dover Tales gave an exceptional performance - with lots of history and humour. The P & O Choir were wonderful. All the District Mayor's seemed to be having a good time.
  
  The Hall was packed with people, and the Mayor of Dover was in full regalia as Henry V111. Not sure which of his six wives he was sitting with.
  
  Lot of talent in this Historical Town of Dover.
  
  It would be lovely to have this Fair as an annual event.
