Pub in the Park, the much-loved food and music festival curated by celebrity chef Tom Kerridge, is pleased to announce an unmissable line up of family activities for 2024. The festival returns to Marlow, Chiswick, Reigate and St Albans across four weekends this summer, packed with fun for the whole family to enjoy.
With a commitment to creating unforgettable moments, Pub in the Park promises endless activities tailored to children of all ages – alongside a show stopping lineup of music, restaurants, and menus from celebrity chefs. From face painting and balloon animals to outdoor games and live entertainment, there’s plenty to discover this summer…
Ensuring they look the part, there’s face painting, hair braiding and glitter galore, perfect for getting little ones into the festival spirit before the fun ensues. Let off some steam by dancing the day away at the Big Fish Little Fish family rave, immersive silent disco or a family fire feast party from the legendary DJ BBQ & Chops, a Pub in the Park favourite for kids and adults of every age. If games are more their thing, children can put their skills to the test with the Super Olympics, dodgeball and classic funfair games, while football fans can battle it out at the Brentford FC penalty shootout.
Sit back and enjoy world-class circus entertainment that will leave the whole family captivated, or watch in awe as Flawless Dance Troupe’s jaw-dropping acrobatics and street style choreography takes the stage. Storytelling sessions will also run throughout the weekends, guaranteed to enthral little ones and give parents a well-earned moment of calm. Adventure seekers can discover Pub in the Park’s world of inflatables or get lost in the world of the Super Pirates, who are on hand to invite kids into a world of immersive storytelling and theatre. Little Forest Folk will also be bringing a real life mud kitchen, where kids can get stuck into hapa flower printing, stick character making and bug making.
To refuel after a long day partying Pub in the Park style, head to the pick n mix stand, kids’ juice bar or pick up some treats from Bear’s ice cream and Wolfie’s Bakery.
As for grown ups, expect to find dishes from some of the UK’s most beloved restaurants and chefs, including Tom Kerridge, Mary Berry, Simon Rimmer, Andi Oliver, Rick Stein and Michel Roux. And it wouldn’t be Pub in the Park without a knockout music lineup – the likes of Van Morrison, Busted, McFly, Paloma Faith, Sam Ryder, Gabrielle, and Olly Murs have all been confirmed to play across the four weekends, with news on further acts still to come.
