With just over a month to go it's about time we started getting excited for the jewel in the crown of our year of big events.
Saturday August 16th is our very first Seafood & Champagne festival & what a day have we got lined up for you. We’ll not have it said that we don’t have something for everyone at The Oxofrd, with a full line up of sparking wines from Kwoff & an even more impressive selection of fresh seafood from Dan & Dan at Fishop Fishmonger this could be our most excellent adventure yet.
From English Sparking Wines to Bottles of Bolly, Oysters to seafood platters, we're pulling out all the stops in our most over the top day out yet.
What could make it even better you ask? Well we've been looking at our calendar & thinking it needs a little of the ol' razzle dazzle & if we can't dust off our fancy pants for a Champagne festival then when can we?! So consider this your one month warning that this a dress to impress situation, think ladies day, think being at a wedding all day, I want to see hats, I want to see floor length dresses in a carpark, I want to see tuxedos, I want to see who wins best dressed I'll be honest. We've got some wonderful people coming interviewing for those who want to show off their outfits to the world. Because when do we ever get chance to get dressed up these days?
Now add to all this, it's free to attend just like always, we've a beautiful friend of ours Gian Luca kicking out some sweet crooning classics in the afternoon then fresh from Glastonbury the magnificent Bossa Dos Patos, a full blown bossa nova band playing us out in the most sophisticated day Shawclough has ever seen.
Could we be any more extra? Could you be anymore locked in?
Dust off your frocks Rochdale,
We're getting Classy.
