Potters Fields Park
We’re celebrating our 21st!
29 May 2026
Potters Fields Park Management Trust is celebrating its 21st Anniversary year with a midsummer party on Potters Fields Park.
The Potters Fields Fair takes place on Saturday June 20th, from 12 noon until 8p.m. and will offer a day of fun and entertainment for local residents and visitors of all ages.
There will be a full stage programme of music, from traditional foot-tapping New Orleans jazz; Jamaican-influenced R’n’B, ska, dub rock and reggae, and ending with two sets of ‘surf noir’.
Between musical acts, visitors can enjoy a display of traditional Catalan castell (human pyramid-building) from the Castellers of London, a dance performance from Southwark College students and Fur The Love of Dogs – an entertaining dog show organised by Bermondsey-based Hiver Arches.
Children will be kept busy with arts and crafts and a mini sports day (with other activities to be confirmed), and there will also be walks, talks, workshops and market stalls.
With food traders from the nearby Tower Bridge Collective food hall, and drinks available from Hiver Beers and the ever-popular Pimm’s teapot, the scene is set for the ideal celebration.
Note: Final programme subject to change; please check back here for updates.
The Potters Fields Fair is presented by Potters Fields Management Trust with Team London Bridge.
The celebrations will continue into Sunday June 21st, which is Make Music Day – an annual celebration of music-making that takes place in communities across the world on the same day. Music will include performances from The Big Summer Wind Orchestra & Choir, a huge ad hoc gathering of musicians and singers of all abilities; Morley College, and Kinetica Bloco, a youth music charity with an exuberant mix of young brass and woodwind players, drummers, steel pan and dancers, all in costume.
