Bargoed May Fair returns on Saturday May 9

Bargoed’s annual May Fair event returns this weekend, with a range of stalls, entertainment and funfair rides coming to the town.

The event will be held in the town centre between 9am and 5pm on Saturday May 9.

Replica vehicles from a range of iconic TV shows and films, including Disney Pixar’s Cars, Back to the Future, Postman Pat, Herbie, and more will be on display at the fair.

There will also be bumper cars, teacup rides, and free giant inflatable games including a football dartboard and penalty shootout on the day.

Meanwhile, more than 50 stalls will be set up, selling a range of food, drink, and hand-crafted items – along with activities such as donkey rides, bird of prey displays, face painting and more.

The event is organised by Caerphilly County Borough Council, and part-funded by Bargoed Town Council and the UK Government through its UK Shared Prosperity Fund.
