EVENT #1
Chichester Festival Theatre

It’s the last week to watch The Other Boleyn Girl at Chichester Festival Theatre. For all those who have attended, let Chi Weekly know what you think.

With some great reviews such as “An irresistible take on this hushed-up slice of history.” - The Stage. Tickets are still available for the final few performances.

And as one performance draws to an end, a new one is beginning. The Minerva Theatre welcomes ‘The House Party’. A show about a wild party, a friendship, cherished pet. And a night that changes everything.

EVENT #2
Oving Scarecrow Day

Since 2008, Oving has hosted an annual scarecrow day. A great day that brings people and families together in a slightly different and fun way.

The scarecrows can be spotted all around the village. And for non-residents, you can even exhibit your own scarecrow in the Church. Attractions and refreshments can be found at both the Church and Village hall. Happening this Saturday - Find out more info here.

Transform Your Home: Spring Sale on Shutters

Exciting news - Chichester Shutters have started their 20% spring sale. Based near the Bluebell Woods Chi Weekly talked about last week, their showroom is well worth a visit to see the shutters and how they install them.

With Design Vintage next door, coffee and cake can be enjoyed at the same time. Click here to find out more about Chichester Shutters Spring Sale or get in touch via 01243 252023 ([email protected])

EVENT #3
Sussex Art Fair

If art is a matter of taste, then is the spectator more important than the art producer? Well with over 90 exhibitors and 3000 pieces of art on display, there is a lot to be enjoyed at The Sussex Art Fair.

Happening at Goodwood this coming weekend. The Art Fair is a great place to get inspired, meet some talented artists and find a new piece to fill that blank space staring at you in the living room. More info here!

EVENT #4
New ‘Hungry Hatchlings’ Dinosaur Exhibition

Ranging from the size of a Boeing 373 aeroplane to that of a small chicken. It’s hard to grasp the sheer size and diversity of the dinosaurs.

The Novium Museum is breaking the lifecycle of dinosaurs down however in their latest exhibition. Follow along and see the journey from egg to adult for many famous dinosaurs such as the T-Rex, Triceratops and Diplodocus.

Local fossils, kindly loaned from nearby museums will be on view also. Find out more info here.

EVENT #5
Chichester City FC Win Promotion

Chichester City FC were recently faced with the sad news of the assistant manager Graeme passing. He was an integral part of the squad and built the side to where they are today. The team have certainly done him proud by claiming promotion on Friday night away at Three Bridges. A successful season for our local club.

If live sport on bank holiday Monday sounds like your thing, take a walk into Chichester to Priory Park. There is cricket to be watched.

Mon 6th May (Priory Park - Chichester Cricket 2’s vs Bognor Regis 2’s)

Enjoy the bank holiday.

Feedback is always appreciated.
