ONCE again Banbury will celebrate its historic canal through its Canal Festival.
On Saturday 5th and Sunday the 6th of October the event will showcase the canal's integral role in the town’s growth, fostering goods, trade, and generating jobs and wealth since its establishment in 1778.
On and off water
