The sixth year of Baldock’s Festival Scarecrow competition should ensure some fun sights, with great prizes for the top three child and top three adult entries. Your scarecrow needs to be in view from the road, either on the front of your property or the rear if that is better from the road or through a window.

To enter you must collect an application form from the community centre or print off from our website here: Baldock-Festival-Scarecrow-Competition-Entry-Form-2025

Then return your form and a photograph of your scarecrow by Saturday 9th May (or before) to the community centre.

Judging will take place during the Street Fair on Saturday 9th May. The winners will be chosen by public vote from a display of your photos on the festival Committee Stand.
