A WREXHAM village is gearing up for a day of family fun in the sun.

The Friends of Ruabon have organised a Village Fete that will take place on the Recreational Ground on Saturday, June 8.

The activities will start with a parade at 12.30pm, which will march from outside the village hall and head to the venue on the fields behind both St Mary's & Maes-y-Llan schools.

The main event begins at 1pm and includes a host of things to do, including fun fair rides, a dog show, bouncy castles as well as refreshments and local history and community stalls.
