A Very Special Picnic...

As part of the Charnwood Arts UK2K12 programme and to celebrate a year when we welcome the world to Britain, this year’s PICNIC IN THE PARK in Loughborough takes on a truly international flavour.

What better way to celebrate the world and our own Queen’s Diamond Jubilee than to join us at our special community arts event in Loughborough’s Queens Park on Tuesday June 5th.

Picnic in the Park, now in its 32nd year, will feature a host of arts and performance events as well as activities for children and all the family.
Join our wonderful Loughborough community and come along to celebrate this monumental event with us. Sunshine, music, laughter.... we hope to have it all! Join in with a host of arts and crafts activities, and sample some great food!

The Loughborough Churches Partnership are also supporting the event by offering a whole range of sports and activities from egg and spoon races, to sack races and the tug of war. The Partnership are also bringing a host of local performance talent.

The fun begins at 12 noon with a procession from Loughborough Market Place to Queen’s Park in Granby Street, Loughborough with activities and performances in the park until 5.00pm....... a whole afternoon of fun for all the family! All Free!!

Why not celebrate in the good old- fashioned way? Bring along your cucumber sandwiches or strawberries and cream and help us to make some buntings to decorate the Park fit for a Queen!
