12:05pm - Big Chief Limping Lizard & Screaming Chicken!
Now we know you haven't seen knife throwing in Cricklade before...  (or at least, not on a stage!).  It’s one of the funniest and most thrilling shows we’ve put on for the Festival so far - so make sure you are at the stage in time!  If you miss this show, it's on again later so don't panic!

12:30pm - Mr Ray’s Jazz Band
Some good old traditional jazz played by some of the finest musicians in the area. They will be providing happy, foot-tapping and entertaining jazz including many of your favourite melodies.  If you miss this how, don't worry, they will be wandering about all day.

1:00pm - Trapeze, Wire walking and Circus Workshops
To catch this show, you'll need to make you way to the St Sampsons Junior School field.  You can reach it using the gate in the Doctor's surgery car park.  Don't miss Rozabella, Michelle, Julianna and others perform on the daring trapeze and walk precariously on the high-wire.  Once the show is over, you'll have a chance to have a go as they provide workshops for 30 minutes.

1:15pm - Tony M
Another set on the Main Stage from the great Tony M.

2:00pm - Jack Daniels the performing dog!
Another chance to come and see the fantastic Jack Russell dance and perform on the stage. 

2:05pm - Big Chief Limping Lizard & Screaming Chicken!
More knife throwing and fire-eating on the main stage in the High St.  If you missed the first show, here's your chance to see it!  This time, you can hopefully see the committee chairman, Nigel, on stage having knives thrown at him.  He's raising money for the Marie Curie Cancer Care charity so if you see a collection bucket, please giove generously.

As before, this show will be on the St Sampsons Junior School field.  You can reach it using the gate in the Doctor's surgery car park.  Don't miss Rozabella, Michelle, Julianna and others perform on the daring trapeze and walk precariously on the high-wire.  Once the show is over, you'll have a chance to have a go as they provide workshops for 30 minutes.
