Town centre manager Tom Hardy has revealed the popular events that will be returning to Hitchin as part of the town s exciting reopening plans, once this latest lockdown ends.
Although many of the town s businesses have had to close again for this third national lockdown, Tom has been busy as ever, and says there will be plenty of events to enjoy later this year to help kickstart the vibrant local business scene once this third national lockdown is over.
The British Schools Museum, based in original Victorian and Edwardian school buildings on Queen Street, gives visitors an insight into what education used to be like. There s also a tearoom and shop.
The North Hertfordshire Museum offers four galleries full of exhibits with a local theme and also has an on-site café and shop.
The Hitchin Festival - dubbed a summer festival for the people of Hitchin by the people of Hitchin - runs every July, pandemics permitting.
Hitchin Lavender is a huge draw in the summer months, with visitors flocking to enjoy the 25 miles of lavender fields and the fabulous photo opportunities they present. Owned and operated by a local family, there s a restaurant, gift shop and play area, making for an ideal day trip.
