Somerset Day is set to return with more events than ever before.
Taking place across the weekend of Saturday, May 10 and Sunday, May 11, this year's celebrations promise an unforgettable line-up of activities that showcase everything that makes Somerset a special place to live, work, and visit.
The county will be alive with the sounds, tastes, and traditions of Somerset, with residents set to expect open days, craft fairs, street parties, historical re-enactments, farm tours, cider tastings, and family fun.
Highlights of the weekend include an evening with The Wurzels, set to entertain with hits like Combine Harvester and I Am A Cider Drinker.
This promises to be a joyful, foot-stomping evening of music and laughter—a true celebration of Somerset’s spirit.
The 'Cider & Cheese Trails' will lead participants through the county’s finest artisan producers, while the arts and makers markets will see local artists, craftspeople, and creatives showcasing their talents at pop-up markets and exhibitions across Somerset.
There will also be guided walks, children’s storytelling, wildlife encounters, and village fetes to keep all ages entertained.
Living history experiences will allow people to step back in time with historical demonstrations and open heritage sites offering a glimpse into Somerset’s rich and varied past.
