We have done this successfully for the last four years at the Institute of Directors in Pall mall.
The winners were greeted by stilt walkers and applauded by final mile clappers as the world tweeted them to receive twenty one prestigious Courier ‘Silver C’ awards .

Stilt walkers meet and greet at 2017 Natwest T20 Cricket

We had characters made called the Stilt walking Dumpires, a comedy take on Umpires at the Sussex County Cricket ground

A great day was had by all as our two larger than life stilt walking umpires meeting and greeting and building excitement before the match.

Started in 2003 and originally in England and Wales. T20 was considered as an energizing contrasting option to One Day and Test Match cricket. The configuration guarantees fans are spellbound by each ball and every hit with lots of fast action and running throughout.

Originally started as an inter-county competition T20 has grown to be international.

The game will have 20 innings and is played over three hours. This makes T20 a very fast action and game, due to such a limited time.

It was great to be stiltwalking, mingling and meeting all the lovely folks at what is to sadly be the very last Cornbury Festival.
Based in The Great Tew Park in Oxfordshire on 7th -9th July 2017, this festival is like an English open air party. A country fair with a ‘rock and Roll’ twist.
A homespun melting pot where music-lovers share pies and a glass of champagne with superstars, toffs, rockers, crooners, Morris dancers, farmers, urbanites, fashionistas, gourmet chefs and little old ladies who make exceptional cakes.
