The Bampton Festival took place in 1985 between 13th July and 20th July. An exhibition of photographs and artefacts, including the skeleton which had been dug up at Beam Cottage, was staged at the Old School; an archaeological exhibition in the Town Hall; at Kilmore House an exhibition showing 350 years of needle and thread. During the week, Bampton enjoyed visiting Folk Singers; a once-in-a-lifetime event when all three Bampton Morris Dance Teams performed at the same venue; a demonstration of lace making together with various other talks and events.

On the morning of 17th July 2007,Bampton was deluged by a massive storm resulting in flooding in many parts of the village: Weald, New Road, The Primary School, Fox Close, Pococks Close, The Pieces, Ampney Orchard,Chetwynd Mead, Aston Road and Buckland Road. Many families had to leave their homes, for up to a year in some cases, to allow for drying-out and repairs to be made.
