Apple Day will be returning to Cockington Court in October, promising family-friendly fun, live entertainment and over 40 stalls showcasing local produce.

The popular autumnal event is taking place on Sunday 11 October from 11am to 4pm, with free entry for all.

With a wide range of stalls lined up for this year's celebration, visitors will be able to browse a range of local gifts, crafts and art, as well as delicious local food and drinks.

There will also be entertainment and activities for all ages, including live music, face painting and a traditional apple press demonstration. Demonstrators will be turning apples into juice and describing how to transform the juice into delicious homemade scrumpy. Visitors can also bring their own apples for pressing, for a small donation.

Apple Day is one of Cockington Court's most popular events, and I'm so pleased to see it return this year. With stalls showcasing some wonderful local businesses and creatives, live entertainment, and activities, there's something for visitors of all ages to enjoy.

It's free to attend and all are welcome so please do come along, celebrate the autumn season with family and friends, and explore what Apple Day, and Cockington, has to offer!

Please note, parking at Cockington Court is limited so visitors are encouraged to carshare or travel to the event via public transport. The number 62 Torbay Buses service will be running on the day of the event.

Alongside Apple Day activities, resident Cockington Court artists and makers will be showcasing their creative skills in their studios, providing visitors with the opportunity to learn about their craft and purchase their creations. The on-site craft shop and gallery will also be open, as will the Seven Dials Café which will be serving food and drinks all day.

Visitors can also explore the free, movie-themed Sculpture Trail which runs until Sunday 1 November. The trail features over 30 different sculptures located around the Manor House and surrounding grounds and studios.
