SUMMARY:Tavistock Goose Fair
DESCRIPTION:Tavistock Goose Fair is a much-loved annual event held on the second Wednesday of October. Steeped in history\, this vibrant fair dates back to the 12th century and was originally a Michelmas livestock market. Its current date was set in 1752 following the adoption of the Gregorian calendar. \nOne of only three goose fairs in the UK—alongside Nottingham Goose Fair and Michaelmas Goose Fayre in Colyford—Tavistock’s event remains deeply connected to its heritage. The name “Goose Fair” is thought to originate from the tradition of buying geese at the fair to fatten up for Christmas.  \nWhile the fair has evolved over time\, it still retains its market roots. Traders line Abbey Bridge and Plymouth Road\, selling everything from handcrafted goods to delicious local produce. Meanwhile\, the town centre is transformed with over 200 stalls\, including community groups showcasing their work. \nFor those seeking thrills\, the Wharf and Bedford car parks host an exhilarating funfair\, with 70 spaces allocated to the Showman’s Guild for high-adrenaline rides and traditional fairground attractions. Visitors can enjoy white-knuckle rides like the Freak Out\, classic Waltzers\, and Dodgems\, as well as fun houses filled with twists and turns. Younger visitors can delight in giant inflatable slides\, carousels\, and helter-skelters. \nBeyond the rides\, the fair offers a variety of side shows\, where visitors can try their luck at winning prizes or simply soak up the lively atmosphere. With its unique mix of history\, tradition\, and entertainment\, Tavistock Goose Fair remains a highlight of the year\, offering something for everyone.
