Dronfield Gala 2024 - Thank you Dronfield
We hope you had a great day at the 2024 Dronfield Gala - we've had great feedback from residents and it was one of the busiest years we've ever had! The VR tent in particular was a huge hit and some stalls completely sold out of stock! The rain just about held off, but hopefully next year will see the return of sunshine for the 2025 Gala.
Thank you Dronfield, see you next year!
