FAQs

Neighbourhood On Blackheath is coming to our favourite park for one year only on Sunday 26th July 2026.

This year, we're changing things up a bit. We know our community is struggling more than usual, and we want to give you an incredible day packed with fun for everyone, while still being accessible to all. Because everyone deserves to keep making memories, no matter their situation. This event includes music, activties, rides, giveaways and more fun for all ages. Entry is free, but capacity is limited, so the event will be ticketed. The ticket costs £10, and that £10 is given back to you as credit to spend on the day. So you get it all back!

We expect this to sell out fast, don't miss out on this opportunity

Sunday 26th July 2026.
