Greenwich Council’s Together 23 festival will be back in Charlton Park on Saturday June 10th, with organisers looking for performers, traders and activity providers to take part.
It’ll be the third festival to be held in the park, with the event now settling into early June after being held to mark Queen Elizabeth’s platinum jubilee at the beginning of last summer.
Last year’s performers included Tyber and Pete from the Dualers and the House and Garage Orchestra, with 18,000 people attending across the day. This year’s event will bring more live music and performances, arts and crafts, community stalls, marketplace and street food, ‘have a go’ sports and kids’ activities and funfair rides.
Adel Khaireh, the council’s cabinet member for culture, said: “Every year, our summer event brings local communities together and showcases the borough’s diverse range of arts and culture, voluntary organisations and local businesses.
“The rising cost of living is putting pressure on all of us, so providing free family events for local people from all backgrounds to enjoy is more important than ever. Last year over 18,000 of you enjoyed Together 22. I hope to see many of you again in Charlton Park this June.”
Performers, traders, or anyone who wants to provide an activity at the event should move quickly and fill in the form at www.royalgreenwich.gov.uk/take-part-T23 by Friday.
