Merry May Day
Description
Always a popular family day out, the Merry May Day celebrations have become a long tradition in the bustling gateway town of Holywood.
Enjoy funfair rides, Jump, Jiggle and Jive, the annual Bonnie Baby Competition as well as a fantastic Maypole Programme. Browse and buy from the bric-a-brac stalls, and from our wonderful artists and makers at Art on the Rails.
Musical performances will add to the ambience of a great day out, and of course the display of dance by local school children around the Island's only Maypole is a highlight!
