What's on this weekend? 25-26 September

 Here's a quick rundown of what's on this weekend in Stoke-on-Trent, Newcastle and the surrounding area, selected to be suitable for the Days Out With Daddy audience - families with young children.

Middleport Pottery Artisan and Food Market
Friday 24 September - Saturday 25 September, 10:00 am - 4:00 pm both days
Free entry
If your children are interested in artisan food (yeah, it's a bit of stretch, but they may be), then Middleport pottery may be the place for you.  Try out new and interesting foods (it'll be a change from pizza, chicken nuggets and chips, which is all mine will eat...).

Alternatively, the foody theme continues with the Newcastle Under Lyme Fresh n Tasty Foodstival.
Saturday 25th September 2021
11:00 am - 6:00pm
Brampton Park, Newcastle under Lyme, Staffordshire ST5 0QP

This is a similar but less 'artisan' food festival, with a refreshing array of hot and cold (alcoholic and soft) drinks to appeal to everyone’s taste buds.   There'll be a wide selection of food and drinks stalls, with an exciting opportunity to try an array of tasty dishes and desserts, to cover everybody's taste preferences and appetites.  

These are always good if your kids are nibblers and you're looking to try to expand their narrow range of foods (without having to break the bank buying food that then gets buried in the freezer for months).

COST:
Under 5 – FREE
5 – 15 years - £1.50
16+ £2.50

Potters 'Arf Marathon
Sunday 26 September

Yes, the Potters 'Arf marathon is back, starting out from central Hanley at 10:30 am, and going on a large anticlockwise loop around the city.  The route includes Shelton, Fenton, Longton, Bentilee, Abbey Hulton, Milton and Baddeley Green before returning to Hanley via Sneyd Green.

Come along, cheer the runners on, and maybe get some photos?

Expect traffic disruption around the route for most of the morning.
