What's happening in Shepton Mallet this weekend?
From wassails to roller discos, plenty is happening in Shepton Mallet this weekend to take your mind off the dreary weather we've had this week.
Here's just a few of the events that caught our eye this week.
Pilton Wassail - Tithe Barn, Pilton
Wassailing is the pagan fertility rites carried out on Fruit Trees to awake them and has been celebrated in England since the 1400's. Soaked in cider, toast, loud noise (and frequently, rain) it's a traditional part of the Somerset calendar not to be missed.
The Pilton event takes place on Saturday at the Tithe Barn from 3pm.
Repair cafe - Art Bank 11am-1pm
This week, the Repair Cafe is running at the Art Bank, so come and get items fixed for free and save some money in these difficult times!

The Somerset Vintage & Classic Tractor Show is heading to the Bath and West Showground at the end of the month., there will be about 200 tractors on display ranging from early models, built from about 1920 up to the latest models we see farmers use today. There will be trade stands, with 1000's of tractor spares, books and model tractors and toys for sale.
The popular auction of vintage and classic tractors, implements, engines and related items will be held on Saturday 28th January, by HJ Pugh & Co., Ledbury, call 01531 631122 or visit www.hjpugh.com for further details.
All proceeds to charity.
The Bath and West Showground is the Shepton Mallet Nub News What's On sponsor. Without community-minded partners like the Bath and West Showground we would not be able to produce the locally-relevant, clickbait-free news to the people of Shepton Mallet.
