Bramley Scarecrow Festival returns for Hallowe’en 2024

The organisers of Bramley Scarecrow Festival have confirmed the event will return in 2024 – and that it will return to a Hallowe’en slot.

The event was started is a socially distanced fashion back in October 2020 and has proven a popular annual event. Last year’s event was moved to the summer, but organisers have decided to move the festival back to its traditional October time slot due to popular demand.

A new Facebook group – Bramley Scarecrow Festival 2024 – has been set up and Bramley residents are being encouraged to join the group to receive updates.

One of the organisers, Bramley resident Cathy Mill, told WLD there had been local rumours that the festival wouldn’t be going ahead this year, but they were untrue.

“It ran in June/July last year at short notice, but most people wanted it back at Hallowe’en,” she said. “It’s very much back by popular demand! We’ll be looking to get local schools involved, as well.”

The event is scheduled for October 25-November 2.

Cathy is joined by founder Martine Pearson and Karen Hargreaves as volunteer organisers of this year’s event.
