Floral delights and musical favourites will be showcased at a popular church.
St Bartholomew's Church, on Church Lane, Corton will host a themed festival – from the West End to St Bartholomew's in flowers – and an array of events over the bank holiday weekend.
With the flower festival featuring displays of top stage musicals – such as Joseph and the Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat, The Sound of Music and many more – refreshments and home-made cakes will be available throughout the weekend.
The festival runs from Saturday, August 26 to Monday, August 28.
