My Scottish accent and my Chinese looks are probably a clue to me not being a native Cestrian. However I have fallen in love with this city and consider it home. So I feel I should share some of this love with you and want to tempt you to visit Chester and maybe as you are here anyway – visit me too! (of course there is an ulterior motive, lol)
So what is happening this month?
Sport events:
Show-Jumping 3rd – 5th July National Friendly British Masters held at Chester race course
I can’t say much about this, because as much as I like horses I haven’t got a clue about show jumping apart from Andrew Davis (a leading British show jumper) has nice buns.
Chester Races 10th – 11th July
Ladies & Gents evening on Friday and Saturday is totesport day, well the races are pretty well known so not much for me to say apart from: ‘Get your betting slips out?’
Music & Entertainment:
Chester Summer Music Festival 4th – 19th July
A wide variety of musical events from classical performances through to jazz as well as
sing-a-longs and performance talks. A number of exciting and interesting venues have been chosen, more info: http://www.chesterfestivals.co.uk/site/summer-music-festival
Chester Roman Games: Music, Dance and Death 18th – 19th July
Roman times and culture brought to life, military training displays, gladiator games have a go activities and more.
Bits and Bobs:
Raft Race 12th July; 10am to 1pm
This year the theme is Super Heros and Villans and there are about 40 rafts expected, a free fun spectacle.
These are just a few big events in Chester that caught my eye and I will post about other things to do in future posts including things I like, place I enjoy and more regular happening such as comedy nights and gigs. I hope you will enjoy reading about them and understand why I want to share my chosen City with you.
