The Big Somerset Picnic
Besides great food and drink, the Picnic aims to bring people together, provide opportunities to fundraise for local causes and celebrate everything Somerset has to offer.
Somerset Day, organised by the not-for-profit Passion for Somerset CIC, inspires and empowers communities, businesses and all who live and work in Somerset to share a passion for our county.
This year we want everyone to join in and celebrate with the Big Somerset Picnic over the weekend of 11th and 12th May.
Organise your own picnic in your local village, town hall or community centre or get your local school or nursery involved. Care homes, offices and shops can also join in the fun.
We’re inviting organisers to use the Big Somerset Picnic as an opportunity to raise funds for a local organisation or cause that matters to the community.
To find out more get The Big Somerset Picnic 2024 pack brimming with lots of ideas to help you organise your picnic. You’ve also got a chance to win a hamper bursting with Somerset produce as well as details on how to enter our best-decorated picnic spot competition.
