Egremont Crab Fair and Sports was established in 1267, which makes it one of the oldest fairs in the world.
It combines ancient and traditional events with modern attractions in a unique way, attracting visitors from all over the world.
Events start at teatime on Friday with a free concert Dancing In The Street. Main street comes to life again on Saturday morning with the Apple Cart being the spectacle at 12.30pm.
Then follow the crowds up to the Crab Fair Field to check out all the local producers, take a look in the craft marquee, foodhall marquee, watch the sports, dog shows, equestrian events, ferret shows and much more.
The kids will love the kids area with their very own kids arena and lots of fair rides, mobile zoo and other star attractions, if its music you enjoy get up to Crab Fest and dance into the night.
If The World Gurning Championships are more your thing then head to The Falcon Club at 6pm.
