People were invited by theatre production company Three Left Feet to join Alice, the Mad Hatter, the Queen of Hearts and friends for a wonderfully whimsical weekend of games, fun and fancy dress.
You could find your name on the invite list with the Frog Footman, play croquet with Alice, the White Rabbit and the Queen of Hearts, challenge the Mad Hatter and the March Hare in an Egg and Chicken and Spoon race, learn the rules of Wonderland Chess from the Gryphon and the Mock Turtle, run the Caucus Race under the careful instruction of the Dodo and take a toadstool selfie with the cantankerous Caterpillar.
It was an amazing weekend filled with curious characters, magical encounters, plenty of wonderfully mad adventures and amazing Crepes from Le Petite Crepe.
The event was free.
