Woburn Oyster Festival
The first Oyster Festival was one September day in 1994 and since then it has grown to a 3-day event with a Friday evening concert, a Saturday Flea Market and Sunday Fun Day. As well as oysters, there is a variety of other food on offer, plus a full bar, music all weekend, street entertainment, a funfair, craft stalls and more.
2011 OYSTER FESTIVAL is on Friday 9th (evening), Saturday 10th and Sunday 11th September.

Woburn Village Open Garden Day and Scarecrow Competition.
Every June the Heritage Centre organises a day when villagers can open their gardens and in recent years a scarecrow competition has been added to the event. There are usually about a dozen gardens open with the scarecrows scattered around the village. A scarecrow voting slip is included with the garden map so visitors can vote for their favourite scarecrows.
2012 GARDEN DAY will be on Saturday 23rd June, 10.30am to 6pm.
Entry to all gardens: £3.50
