DATES and locations for this summer's Feel Good Family Picnics have been confirmed.
-
The popular days out for families sponsored by automotive dealer Premier Kia pulled in more than 15,000 people last year with events in Heywood, Middleton, Little-borough and Rochdale.
Organised by the council team behind Rochdale Feel Good Festival, they promise four days of fun activities, performances, music, sports and shows for children of all ages, and once again visitors will be encouraged to bring a picnic.
The Feel Good Family Picnic will be staged at Rochdale Town Hall Square on Tuesday 29 July and then Limefield Playing Fields in Middleton on Wednesday 30 July before moving to Littleborough’s Hare Hill Park on Thursday 31 July.
The final stop will be Queen’s Park in Heywood on Friday 1 August.
