Minifest is believed to be the only one of its kind in the region to be focused on families and children, and returns to Bowthorpe Park Farm for the second year this weekend
A festival for children and families is taking place this weekend between Stamford and Bourne, having started in a village hall three years ago. Minifest returns to Bowthorpe Park Farm, with two days full of activities and performances tailored to children of all ages. Last year, the event attracted nearly 2500 people. It’s organised by Olivia Cutforth and Danielle Baines who both have childrens event companies. They wanted to give an all-inclusive experience for everyone:
