It's also Market day in the Marketplace

This family-friendly event is packed with free activities and entertainment for all ages:

Adding to the festive atmosphere, local retailers will be showcasing their creativity with beautifully decorated spring-themed window displays. The judging of these displays will take place at 2 pm, with the esteemed judging panel consisting of Rutland's Lord Lieutenant, Dr. Sarah Furness, and Oakham's Mayor, Cllr Paul Ainsley.

Weather permitting, many retailers will also bring their shops out onto the streets with stalls, creating a bustling marketplace atmosphere and offering shoppers a chance to browse a variety of goods. Come and experience the charm of Oakham this spring!
