A village came together for a day of fun, celebrating movement and community spirit.

Micheldever in Motion took place on July 4 at The Warren Centre, offering an energetic twist on the traditional village fete with a line-up themed around transport and travel.

The event ran from 12.30 pm to 4.30pm and featured games, displays, and hands-on activities offering something for visitors of all ages.

A variety of vehicles were on show, including vintage cars and fire engines. However, due to the heat, the highly anticipated dog competition was cancelled.

One of the day’s highlights was a series of fly-overs, complete with live commentary from Popham Airfield.

The Station Master’s House was also open to visitors, bringing a heritage and history element to the event.

Live jazz from the Savoy Affair band filled the air as guests enjoyed refreshments including pizza, ice cream, tea, coffee, and cakes.

The family-friendly event attracted a strong turnout and helped bring together neighbours and visitors.

Micheldever in Motion was created to celebrate the village’s ties to transport, history, and coming together as a community.
