The venue is again Putley Village Hall and the trials themselves will be held on Saturday, 1st May. The results and winning entries will be on display in the hall on the public days on Sunday and Monday and the public can try these for themselves.

In early May The Big Apple Association holds the Blossomtime festival, a unique blend of activities in and around orchards, which should be in full blossom, combined with traditional cider and perry tasting. In 2010 it will be Sunday 2nd and Monday 3rd May.
