News on Sparkle in the Park survey

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas! And the council’s team of elves has transformed Avery Hill Park into a new Sparkle in the Park winter wonderland for Royal Greenwich residents to explore.

The free festive fun continues daily from 30 November to 3 December, between 4.30 and 9pm.

Aa part of the annual festive light trail, the historic Winter Garden will be illuminated, alongside stunning light features sponsored by Bagnalls and Lbox Communications. There is also be a market, fun fair and musical performances. On Saturday and Sunday, Disco Shed will have you rockin’ around the Christmas tree in no time!

Entry is free, and unlike last Christmas, visitors don’t need a ticket to enter this year’s event. We will do our best to minimise any wait times, but please be prepared to queue for entry at busy times.

On Sunday 3 December, the first hour will be a quiet session, for children and adults with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) and sensory sensitivities. Public access will resume at 5.30pm.

Be sure to plan your visit in advance, so all you have to think about on the day is having yourself a merry little Christmas!
