This is the home of the Dalston Festival 2009. From here you will be able find out what is happening each day and read reports and view pictures from each event. This year the voting arrangements will be different. You will only be able to vote in the main competition via the Scarecrow Trail forms which should be deposited in boxes in the Post Office, Co-op etc.

Since we announced that it would not be possible this year to vote online in the main scarecrow competition (for which a cup will be awarded on Festival Friday) we have been contacted by many followers of the Dalston Festival from both within Dalston and from around the world.
