• Saturdays – 2pm until 8:30pm-9:00pm

The funfairs have been a staple of Stone life, however, in the current climate along with the likes of theme parks, things will be slightly different.

Warwicks Funfairs told A Little Bit of Stone about their COVID secure procedures for the fair:

• The fairground will be fenced with a designated entrance and exit system.
• Face masks will be compulsory for everyone entering the site and MUST be worn when walking around the site and on rides – under 11’s and those exempt from wearing a mask can attend and ride.
• Hand sanitizer stations will be available on each ride.
• Social distancing will be in force on rides with seats left free.
• A one-way system and marked out queuing will be in operation.
• All rides will be token-based to reduce limit cash exchanges between ride attendants and riders.
• A track and trace system will be in place which attendees must complete.
• All rides will be treated with Zoono – a disinfectant which creates a micro shield.
• Rides will be deep cleaned every day with regular cleaning of high contact areas.
