Botanics in Bloom events cancelled

Unfortunately the children's events and band concerts planned for this weekend at Botanics in Bloom, Singleton Park are cancelled due to waterlogging under the marquee.

The plant sales will be going ahead as planned and the gardens are accessible by tarmac path - it's only the marquee that has been affected by the rain.
