Beauties in Bute run gathering events for like-minded people to come together, enjoy one another's company and raise money for Marie Curie. This year for the first time, BiB are hosting a Fantasy Themed picnic.
The idea is simple, dress in your finest fantasy garb and bring along a picnic to Orchard Garden in Bute Park on 27 April. Bring friends, family, children and dogs, or come along and make friends there.
Those attending should make a donation to Marie Curie through our Just Giving event or in cash on the day.

There is no arranged events, or entertainment, this is just a gathering to wear fun things and enjoy life.

DO I HAVE TO DRESS UP?
No, absolutely not - want to just come for the vibes, that’s totally fine - wear what you feel comfortable and brilliant in - we love a theme, but it doesnt mean you have to.
DO I HAVE TO PAY TO ATTEND?
No - we ask for donations to Marie Curie Wales from those that can afford it.
The events are to raise money, but not to exclude anyone.
IS THIS LIKE A RENNISANCE FAYRE?
No - we don’t organise any entertainment, its just a picnic where like-minded people gather together for an afternoon.
WHAT IF IT RAINS?
We will keep an eye on the weather and update you a week before the event with an alternative location or new date should the forecast dampen our spirits.
IS THE EVENT SPACE PRIVATE?
No, the picnic takes place in a public park so please be aware there will be other members of the public around.
IS THE EVENT ACCESSIBLE?
Yes, in so much that the area in the park is accessible by flat tarmac paths from a nearby car-park on North Road. The picnic space is over flat grass, but there is also picnic benches in the same area near the Secret Garden café.
WHAT SHOULD I WEAR?
Your imagination is the limit. Some ideas:
prince, prinx, princess, fairy, hobbit, witch, wizard, animal, dragon, elf, goblin, gnome, vampire, merperson, centaur, ogre, griffin, etc!
