Join our FREE May Day celebrations for all ages, bringing together community, music, dance, and traditions rooted in nature and folklore. We're asking, what is the meaning of 'folk' in our community?
Our May Day event is a way to get together, support each other and enjoy nature in the city. So lets welcome in the longer days and warmer sun together as we embrace Spring with a packed programme of workshops, maypole dancing, art, food, drink, markets & much more at our Forever Fields community garden in Chorlton.
Our focus is on local and we want the whole community down to enjoy the space!
Everything open 12-7!
Fun for all!
