Free event
Southampton Play Day is a free event for all children and young people aged from babies to 14 years.
Play Day will be held in Hoglands Park on July 25 from 10am to 2pm. More than 20 children's organisations will come together to provide a day-long celebration of a child's right to play.
This annual event is part of the national play day campaign with thousands of children across the country enjoying a wide range of fun and exciting play activities at outdoor events. In Southampton, children will be able to take part in activities such as sports and games, circus skills, painting, messy play, arts and crafts, music, dance and drama.
An information tent will also be provided at this event with lots of details for parents/carers on relevant organisations and activities - including what's on for the rest of the summer.
For more information contact 023 8083 2692.
