Moulton Village Festival
BACK TO NORMAL! 15-22 MAY 2022
Every year in mid May, Moulton Village hosts its annual Village Festival. Moulton Morris have always been closely associated with the
ancient custom of crowning a May Queen and every year Morris sides from all over the country arrive to decorate the May Cart with flowers
and form the procession round the village up to the crowning ceremony. In addition, there are stalls, concerts , dancing displays and other
activities throughout the weekend. Here are some pictures from the 2022 weekend (more to follow):
