The Flitch Trials, which take place every four years, , will be held on Saturday July 9, 2022.
They were last held in July 2016. They have been rescheduled because of the Covid pandemic.
All tickets already purchased will be automatically carried forward to July 2022.

The trials have been going for more than 900 years and every four years reward a flitch of bacon to couples who can convince judges they are happily married.
