See the GSPCA at the Viaër Marchi 2023 this Monday #VM2023

Submitted by Steve on 09:35, 1st Jul, 2023 | 0

This Monday the GSPCA will once again be at the Viaër Marchi for their 2023 event with our stall.

Team members Natalie and Sarah will be running the GSPCA stall to raise funds for our 24/7 work and promote all that we do.

The Viaër Marchi 2023 will no doubt be a great evening and entry is £6 adults this 3rd July between 5:00pm - 9:00pm at Saumarez Park - https://www.visitguernsey.com/see-and-do/things-to-do/saumarez-park/

The hugely popular Viaër Marchi, hosted by National Trust of Guernsey on the first Monday in July, heralds the start of the Guernsey Summer season. Showcasing traditional Island crafts, favourite foods, music and dancing, this is a gathering enjoyed by generations of Islanders and return visitors since the 1970s.

All involved very much look forward to welcoming everyone to this bright and fun-filled event on Monday 3 July, 2023.
Many generations mingle, with smiles and chat enjoyed during the party which traditionally heralds the start of Guernsey's summer.

The spirit of Lé Viaêr Marchi is captured by Channel Island Cooperative Society's film, shot in 2019 when the event celebrated its 50 year anniversary. See here

Steve Byrne GSPCA Manager said “We are delighted at the GSPCA to be invited back to the Viaër Marchi to take our stall, raise funds and promote our work which is the first time since 2018.”

“Team members Natalie Spicer and Sarah Harrison will be there with our tombola and other goods so please do pop by, say hi and help us raise much needed funds for all that we do for animals and the community in Guernsey.”

“If you can help on our stall please do call 257261 or email [email protected] and we have many other events coming up you can see on our blog pages.”
