The Street Fair will link seamlessly with a Street Party to mark the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee. While the Street Fair draws people from all over Oxford, the Jubilee Party is intended to be a more local affair to which everyone in Jericho will have received an invitation. You are asked to bring along food and drink to share with others. The party will be held at the western end of Cardigan Street, parallel with the church. Choirs, dancers and conjurers will entertain. If it rains the event will be held inside the church — which can hold 1,000 people! The party will begin at 4.30 p.m. and last until about 6.00 p.m. ..then dancing in the street As usual the Street Fair will be acompanied by live music on a stage outside the Bookbinders in Canal Street which will continue into the evening.
