Explore Coventry (UK) Day 2 (of 2 days)
This weekend’s two-day event has been postpone due to COVID-19.
This is for both your own safety and the safety of others.
(Also, many of the shops and historical places maybe closed.)
The event is temporarily rescheduled to a future weekend probably in May… but we will recreate this event page, relist it, and inform all interested guests when the situation has calmed down in the UK and a safe date is available for the majority of out of town guests.
Sorry for the cancellation. We wish you all the best of health! Please follow the UK government health & NHS websites for more information about how to protect yourself, your loved ones and others in your community.
