Week St. Mary Revel is an annual event
held in September each year.
If you are new to
the village this is a fun afternoon and
evening when we uphold an old tradition
of crowning the Harvest Queen and we
revel and make merry with stalls and
entertainment in the playing field. The
afternoon’s revelry is completed with
the now famous Revel Tea. All proceeds
are shared out between the 2 churches
and other organisations in the village.
Please come everyone and join in and
have a great time. The evening usually
continues with a BBQ or similar and an
evening of general entertainment for
all.
The setting of the date for Revel has
always been a bit of a mystery for some
but click

for an explanation as written by the Rev
Samuel Holker Haslam of Week St. Mary
1900-1919 and reproduced in the local
magazine during that period.
