We’ll Meet Again
Chasewater Railway and Always Red Events invites families and vintage fans to step back in time for a thoroughly vintage day out on the 24th June 2012, from 11am – 5pm.
The event, We’ll Meet Again, will include 50 local exhibitors selling affordable and boutique vintage clothing, jewellery, accessories, home wares, arts, crafts gifts, & handmade items. There are also cupcakes, confectionery and ice cream and 2 of the Midlands loveliest vintage hostesses, Sugabilly pin up Kia L'Amour and October DiVine.
It’s not all about the shopping though! It’s a grand day out for all the family with children's games, face painting, competitions, bouncy castle, giant Jenga, Connect Four and entertainment with Jolly Joey.
For the grownups we have the divine Laura Mai performing some 40s classic songs and Strictly Jitterbug will be dancing on the railway platform. Speakeasy Cocktails bars are working some mixology magic with themed cocktails and alcohol free mocktails made the old fashioned way.
Just for the girls the Pop Up Vintage Salon will be offering hair and make-up from just £5, including victory rolls, beehives, waves and curl sets (think Marilyn Monroe or Dita Von Teese). They also apply false lashes for just £6 and specialise in perfect eyeliner flicks and red lips (to pre-book beauty sessions email info@lekeuxevents.co.uk). There’s also the vintage 'photo booth' where you can have your photo taken and receive two vintage prints for £10 on the day.
The Sidings Tea Room will be serving a Sunday carvery and afternoon tea. Plus a day at the railway wouldn’t be complete without taking you back to the age of steam and there will be Chasewater Railway’s full service of trains running throughout the day.
With free parking and free entrance it’s an absolutely spiffing vintage day out! (Donations for Chasewater Railway will be kindly received though.)
