Summer Shindigs return to Tapnell Farm

Summer Shindigs are returning to The Cow Co. at Tapnell Farm from 27th July.

Come along and join the big summer parties where every week there’s a different theme. Over the six weeks of the summer holidays, there’ll be live music from local talent including Pepperland and Groove Union, outdoor inflatables and giant games, a rodeo bull, face painter and if we’re lucky, some truly epic sunsets!

But don’t worry about the unreliable English weather… Summer Shindigs will be retreating inside and the party will go on, even in bad weather.

Amazing burgers and pop-up bar
The Cow Co. Restaurant will be open as usual delighting diners with their amazing burgers, plus there will be an outdoor BBQ, serving up flame-grilled burgers, perfect for enjoying on the lawn outside.

A pop-up bar will be serving draught beers, refreshing cocktails and kid-friendly mocktails!
