The Countdown Begins For The Royal Windsor Horse show

Less than 3 weeks to go!

With less than 3 weeks to go before the Royal Windsor Horse show kicks off, Old Tyme Funfairs have been making our final preparations to ensure all our stalls and rides are in prime condition ready for children and adults to enjoy. With a bit of spit shine and elbow grease, we have made sure every single carousel, stall and children ride is in tip top form.

The month of May is going to be a busy one as we prepare for a number of different events, first of which is the Royal Windsor Horse Show.

Kicking off on the 14th of May, the Windsor Horse Show is a prestigious event, that showcases talented individuals in various different competitions, with categories that include, International Jumping, Driving, Dressage and Endurance Competitions with three evening performances on Thursday 15th, Friday 16th and Saturday 17th May. Old Tyme Funfairs are attending the RWHS for the full 5 days that starts on Wednesday the 14th of May and ends on Sunday the 18th of May, and we can’t wait to see the talented individuals from around the world showing off their skills.

Although it’s not all play for us as we will be offering our rides and services throughout everyday of the event before packing up shop on Monday.

No rest for the wicked though and from here we will be moving onto the Bedford Kite Festival that kicks off just 1 week after the Royal Windsor Horse Show finishes, on the 25th of May.

The Bedford Kite Festival plays host to some of the weirdest and wackiest kites that have been built all over the world, attracting people from all corners of the globe. We enjoy this event just as much as any other we attend, as well get to witness some stunning kite displays and meet people that have travelled miles just to attend.

Who know’s we might even give it a go ourselves?! What do you think of a Victorian Carousel Kite? - Might be a bit tricky to do.

Upcoming Events

Over the past couple of months Old Tyme Funfairs have been preparing ourselves for some prestigious events that are not far away from us. With the Royal Windsor Horse Show fast approaching we are delighted to inform you that the show will be flood free. There was some concern that over the recent months the high levels of water would create problems, but in more recent weeks the sun has come out to play and we are sure this years horse show is going to be as fun as in recent years! We can’t wait for the 14th of May!

May is sure to be a busy month for us as we are going to be attending 4 different festivals including the Royal Windsor Horse Show. After this we will be moving onto the Bedford Kite Festival where we had a lot of fun last year viewing kites from all over the globe, where we were pleased to meet kite flyers from America, Japan, Germany, France, China and even a member of the Bali Royal Family! The sun is sure to be shining and kites will be flying high in the sky which is something we truly enjoy watching, while kids and adults alike take breaks to enjoy our rides.

One of our favourite events of the year is the Surrey County Show which takes place on the 26th May and gives people the opportunity to view what real farming life is like. Combining entertainment, fun and food, Old Tyme Funfairs will be there providing traditional and fun rides for adults and children to enjoy throughout the day.

Towards the end of May and the start of June we will be moving onto the Suffolk Show and the Royal Cornwall Show which we will touch on more in our next episode, alternatively you can give us a call if you want to find out anymore about our upcoming events.

We hope to see you all on the 14th of May for the start of the Royal Windsor Horse Show!  

Getting Ready for Summer

Here at Old Tyme Funfairs we have been spending the winter months carrying out servicing on our vintage carousel to make sure it is in tip top condition for this years events. The vintage carousel is a very popular attraction and therefore we wanted to make sure it was looking as good as ever even down to a new coat of paint to ensure a completely genuine experience of a Victorian funfair and to make it look as good as new.

Our wonderful vintage funfair is already beginning to get booked up for this year and we will be making sure that we pay a visit to the usual country fairs that we attend to make sure we bring as much fun as possible to the event as well as allowing visitors to take a step back in to yesteryear and get a genuine Victorian funfair experience. We enjoy nothing more than seeing people enjoying all the fun of the fair and that is why we make sure that all our rides are as safe and taken good care of to provide a fun but safe experience for all involved.

Don't forget that our Victorian funfair is also available for private events and functions and make stunning additions to occasions such as weddings. The hire of our traditional fairground also proves to be very popular when it comes to corporate event, therefore if you are interested then make sure that you get in touch with us.

Happy New Year from Old Tyme Funfairs

Hello and Welcome to the brand new Old Tyme Funfairs blog. We would like to firstly start off by wishing everyone a very Happy New Year and the very best wishes for a very prosperous 2014. We are very much looking forward to this year and providing a wide range of entertainment across the UK in the form of our excellent traditional fairground rides which prove to be very popular with people young and old.

We can provide fairground entertainment such as rides as well as side stalls not only for fairs and country shows but we also offer our fairground for special occasions such as weddings as well as corporate events.
