Timetable revealed for this year’s medieval-themed St George’s Day fun

The countdown is on to Tamworth’s popular St George’s Day extravaganza 2019, with an exciting new line-up of entertainment for the whole family set to take over the Castle Grounds on Saturday, April 20, from 10am to 5pm.

Technician Blog

In the last few weeks it feels like we’ve made good progress on the Assembly Rooms refurbishment project.  Our technical specialists, Adlib, have helped us bring our concepts for improving the technical infrastructure to a completed design and I’ve been telling everyone in the office about how great it’s all going to be.  So they’ve asked me to write a piece for the blog to tell everyone else what’s in the pipeline and why we’re so passionate about it.
